You can use one or the other depending on the amp. You may be able to use both IF you are going to use a different amp for each one. Best advice to give to you is to sell one sub and use only one or buy a second identical sub and go forward from there.

Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

I would toss one and get another of the same ohm. Especially if in a shared chamber enclosure.

I wouldn't attempt to use both of them in the same system. Sell one or both of them while you can and purchase a matching pair if you want to install two woofers and can fit them properly. Otherwise, use one of the two you have now that will work best in your system.
