New member Username: TheceoPost Number: 2 Registered: Apr-05 | im new to all this stereo stuff so try not to laugh at me too much, but i went to this shop to see how much they would charge to hook up my 2 kicker subs to my 300w kenwood amp and my cd deck, and he said about 100 i think. but then he said i would probably need a bigger amp to push my kickers. is he right? do i need a bigger amp? and is he ripping me off with that price? thanks in advance. |

New member Username: TheceoPost Number: 3 Registered: Apr-05 | im not sure which kickers they cuz i have them in a box already but i think they had like 4 ohms each, and yea the price included wiring. these are the specs of a newier version of my amp.

Gold Member Username: Taylor17Kopperl, Texas Post Number: 1502 Registered: Jan-05 | The link didn't work for me. What is the name of the amp? www.bcae1.com is a pretty good website to learn about car audio. Take a look at that and see what you learn! |
