Young,

It really is important to know what ohm rating your subs are.

If your JL subs are 8 ohm, it should not be problem to add another 8 ohm sub to your amp.

If your subs are 4 ohm, I would not reccomend that you add another one to this amp, as you would already be pushing your amp pretty hard.

The easiest way to check your subs ohm rating, if you have a multi-tmeter, is to measure the ohm load at your amp. If you don't have a meter you can pull the subs, they should be marked on the back.

Get back to me with the ohm rating and I will help you from there.
