Yes but get a crossover to filter out the higher sounds. Make sure that nothing above about 800 hz gets to the sub.

check the amp to see if there is a cross over feature on it. it might have a switch that says "hi/low/ful" or "hp/fp/lp" , put it on low pass and set the filter to around 80 hz or so and you will be good. If you dont have one on the amp then you will probably need to get one . Any car audio shop should have one available.
