Sentences. They make understanding what the heck you are trying to ask much easier. Learn to use them. ------------- Support the12volt.com

You might need to upgrade your alternator. As far as hooking to the same battery, why not? You shouldn't need but one battery with those amps.

I reckon you need to upgrade your English haha... sentences are crucial... Anyways, you might need an alt upgrade or multiple batteries. Run 1 amp per sub, and wire your subs to the 1.5 ohm load (DVC3). You'll get plenty of power.

If you run one amp per sub you could NOT get a 1.5 ohm load. JL 13.5" W7s have dual 1.5 ohm coils so you would either get a 3 ohm load or a .75 ohm load. I'm really getting tired of correcting you. "U"

Connect each 13W7 as a 3-ohm load (VCs in series) to each Brutus. It'll produce around 750 watts RMS into that load. It'll be fine. Trust me.  ------------- Support the12volt.com
