I have a 10" JL Audio W3V2 with a dual 4 ohm voice coil, a 10W0 with dual 6 ohm voice coil (i think thats right cause its a 10W0-12) and i have an IB4 with a dual 4 ohm voice coil. sounds weird but i got them for an amazing price so i bought them all. neway can i run these subs to a mono channel amp? i need a new one and was gonna go with a kicker 3 channel but mono channels are meant to run subs, plus they are cheaper. if i can run them together what would be the total ohms? thanks alot, Gavin.

they can't share the same enclosure air space of course, and I really don't recommend running them all together. The 10W3v2 would be best alone. or matched to another identical sub.
If you want to compute impedance for wiring various loads together though, see here:
