assuming the ohms are the same. like both subs are 4 ohms. you "should" be fine. i hope both woofers are the same size.

Running two different kinds (or sizes) of subwoofers in general, is a bad idea. Not to mention it looks tacky as hell.
It won't necessarily blow the amp, but the drivers will be powered unevenly, you could experience cancellation, and your sound quality will likely suffer.

Provided that you don't go below the minimum impedance ratings for any amp channel, then you can run two completely different subwoofers without risking amplifier damage.

You have to check the impedence of the amp and the speakers. Two 4 ohm speakers = 2 ohms. Check the amp to see if it will handle 2 ohms. The brand of speakers doesn't matter.

that's a hard question to answer.
It's certainly possible that two subwoofers of any kind can blow an amp if their combined impedance is less than what the amp can handle.

What's the ohm rating on the subs? Are they the same? Are the subs the same size? Do they have the same watts (rms)?
If anything, you might blow one of the subs.

see, it matters what kind of amplifier it is
