Thats not a good idea because you are running too many speakers off that amp it it could possibly blow a channel or the whole amp. trust me i've done it

    It is possible, just as long as you maintain the resistance within the acceptable ranges, and so long as the speakers are able to handle the power. Also, make sure that both channels have the same number of speakers and resistance on each channel. You should be safe that way.
    I've had a few people hook up multiple speakers up to the same amp, and basically you could hook up an indefinite number of speakers to one amp, so long as the resistance remains in that range. However, you will loose power to each individual speaker, and therefore, your system will start to loose volume with each added speaker.
    The different style of circuits you can use are parallel and series circuits, the resistance formulas for each can be found easily online. Just ensure that each circuit is properly attached and calculated, and you should have a nice amplified system.
    Again, in order to not fry the amp, ensure that both channels have the same resistance, and that they are within the appropriate ranges.

Will a SONY XPLOD XM1652Z 2 CH 1000 watts hold two 12in subs?

should do easily though you may need to employ the use of a cross over just incase something goes pop and burns you're car out when you park it after you've been hammering the subs.

I have 2 1100watt sony xplods will they run off a 1000 watt amp

yes it will work, but it will only put out the power to the sub that the amp allows, ie : 100 watt amp puts out 100 wats.
you can also try reconfigering your wire to your subs, if your amp is 1ohm stable and your subs you can come off the amp with a bridge and run subs in series or parralell, this will dramaticly improve the bass

Can I run 8 speakers and 1 sub through 1 1200watt 2:1 Sony Xplod?

asuming the 8s are 4ohms each; wire two in series and that gives you 8ohms then two more in series then you put those together in parallel and it gives you a 4ohm load. repeat with other four for the other side. you should then be able to bridge the sub


series; posative of one speaker to negative of other speaker and that doubles your ohms

parallel; posative to posative negative to negative and that cuts the ohms in half

Sub wiring

IF THE RMS IS 800 THEN THAT IS THE MINIMUM YOU SHOULD RUN TO THEM. IF THE MAX IS OVER 1000 WATT, YOU SHOULD BRIDGE ONE SPEAKER TO EACH CHANNEL. YOU WILL PUSH THE MOST POWER TO THEM THAT WAY. MORE POWER = MORE BASS

How to measure watts

You need a Volt Meter and an Ohm Meter. P = VI & I = V/r, so Power = (Volt^2)/Ohms .

You can get the ohms by hooking them up to the subwoofer input wires, and you get the volts by hooking up to the amp output terminals/wires. Although, amps will put out different voltages for different frequences, this should give you ballpark estimates.

High distortion

The head unit may be rated at 200 watts but it cannot produce more than ~20 watts of real power per channel. There's no way that it can drive the high end speakers to a level that will be needed to compete with the subs on a 1000 watt amplifier.

Sony Xplod XM-1652Z Car Audio Amplifier cuts out when turned up loud

The best thing to do is to get a amp that is more watts than your subs, not the other way around, speakers are known to handel a lil more power but amps cant produce more power than they are capable of... your ground wire should be thick also, say 6 to 8 mm or so, and its best to put in a cap and an equalizer.
