it's very possible...what you would need to do is purchase a tri-way passive crossover. Make sure that the sub can be wired to 4 ohm mono, and the comp sets are each 4 ohm. It;s not the best way to do it, but it would work. I certainly wouldn't recommend it though.

Ahhh....yes it can be done and sound great ( lets face it im real old
school....ie rockford peanut days),contrary to what was posted above.
You can actually run a whole system off of it with the proper xover network
its really sweet when its done right,but as stated above it,dont expect to have
club level power output. I'll see if I can find a pic for you of what I have sitting
in a closet....you would freak out.

If you want the real deal go here:

Look at system 5...the model with the adjustable output for fronts/rear and fixed sub...use the one with the most amp capacity.

Now go play nice.
