My original SYstems is not the greeatest but it BUMBpz

anyways i bought two 12" volfenhag subs ZX-4712DVX

and just switched the subs. it sounded weak. no thump at all.  i mean it works. but does not have that deep rolling bass. I mean its weak.
they are brand new.. un opened box till now.

since they are dual voice coil do i have to wire it differently?

each coil needs its own channel on the amp or bridge both coils into one channel

what subs did you have in previously? where they dvc?

what are your subs 4 or 2 ohm? and what is your amp stable at? 2ohm or 1ohm?

what are the model #'s of your equipment?
