Is it possible to power two subwoofers (PowerAcoustik MOFO-15's) with
just one mono-chanel amplifier (PowerAcoustik A3000DB Class D) ?

Yes, you can power those subs with that amplifier. The subs each have
two 1-ohm voice coils, so you can configure each sub as a 1/2-ohm load
by connecting the voice coils in parallel with each other. Then, take
the two subs and wire them in series with one another for an overall
load of 1 ohm. Your amp will provide 2300W into this 1-ohm load.

No no, he should wire each sub's two VCs in series for a two ohm load and
the run the two subs in parallel for a 1 ohm final load. Its more efficient
that way.















Hehe just kidding.

No No No..your both wrong..
He should Divide the total amps by the width of the main voice coil
conductor output module, providing it is on the second Tuesday of the
month;(cant tell you how many peeps get this wrong) then configure a 1
ohm upturn when the rms is in high apogee. Now here is where it gets
tricky. Should the resonate output measure a 30hz drop-off beyond nominal
range, (I'm taking about magnet polarity) then he should attenuate the
modular fixed length series ammeter(located on the bottom left, just 90
degrees to the wing nut assembly)two degrees past normal, while at the
same time forcing the LPF into a surge pragmatic solution situation. This
should in theory stabilize the variable audio signal stream, and provide
for nominal signal loss in the event of voice-coil meltdown. Not sure why
you guys go out of your way to make it sound difficult. Hope this helps
guy.

this funny, just make sure you run the correct ohm load for your amp
