Yes, Although it is preferred to have a divider.

it will work quite well if your using a mono block or a single channel to power both speakers though, if you don't have a divider. I even have to separate amps powering two different subs in a undivided box but you have to be very careful with gains to make sure that both subs get the same voltage. :)

it's easy if you build to box to separate it though then you don't have to monitor every so closely. and if you blow one sub you can keep one running I blew up a 15" rockford fosgate and then the other one sounded like poo. but if it was a separate channel then it still woulda sounded good.

alright ku thanks alot. i planning to build a box and i have also seen the boxes that have the subwoofer magnet showing i read that it does not effect the performace nor enhance it for sealed boxes would it be the same for a ported one.

if you mount the sub with magnet out and the cone firing in there will be more space inside the box, and obviously less outside the box. most manufacture's specify how much the woofer displaces when it's mounted normally, not sure if they specify the other value. a lot of times people will mount them that way just for it to look cool :)
