Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3735 Registered: Feb-05 | I whould get a nine 1 and run it at 900 x 1 @ 2 ohm That whould be your best bet. You could use that amp down to 1 ohm for later use. $350 shipped / great deal |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 67 Registered: May-06 | i was thinkin the nine.1 but its on back order so thats a big thing, i think i might just go for one of the ones u said in ur first post, think that'll push it hard enough, because i plan on getting another arsenal and a HO alt in like 5-6 months |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 68 Registered: May-06 | but all those in ur first post put out like 500 rms or lower, would i just be better getting a good 1000-1200 watt amp, what is a good 1200 watt amp, will the kx 1200.1 work or something else ( would get the nine.1 but its on backorder and i kinda wanna get it asap ) |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3738 Registered: Feb-05 | In that case, go with the JL 1000/1 Arsenal's are dual 4 ohm voice coil subs which means if you have 2 of them, then your only options are to wire them in series to get a 4 ohm final impedence or down to 1 ohm The JL 1000/1 can run either 1 of the Arsenals or 2 of them when you get both. The Orion 1200D puts out 1200 watts rms @ 1 ohm which works well if you have two Arsenals The Kicker KX1200.1 does 1200 watts rms @ 2 ohm which can only run 1 Arsenal and not 2. The JL 1000/1 is good from 1.5-4 ohms and is more flexible and built alot better then all the amps mentioned and whould be your best choice if you have the money. IF not then i whould settle with the Orion 1200D or ED NINE 1 |

Um the kx1200.1 is 1ohm stable, the new zx1000.1 is only 2ohm stable, me personally would go with the kicker, but any of the amps MO mentioned would work. |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 79 Registered: May-06 | u personally would go with wich kicker the 1200 or the 1000? |
Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Usa Post Number: 1776 Registered: Jan-05 | i'd go with the kx1200.1, or if you can find one cheap a sx1250.1. |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 87 Registered: May-06 | whered be a good place to buy the kx1200.1?? i checked on ebay and no new ones |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3753 Registered: Feb-05 | IF the KX1200.1 is 1 ohm stable then it is a good choice aswell. I whould get the Orion 1200D or KX1200.1 or ED NINE 1 Either way it will get the job done. |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 89 Registered: May-06 | aight, any good sites to get them off of, im prolly just gonna end up getting anyone i can find the cheapest since they are all good |

Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 90 Registered: May-06 | that nine.1 at $350 is looking better and better everytime i look here, it says backorder anyone know how long it takes to ship? if its not to long thats what i'll get |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 572 Registered: Feb-06 | i've been waiting for the nine.1's for my arsenals to and i was told by ed that it'll be 3-4 weeks until there back in stock, and i was told that on may 4th. |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 93 Registered: May-06 | didnt see your post and i called them they said like 4-5 weeks, thats to long i gotta find something quick |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 94 Registered: May-06 | u think if i got a orion 600d it would be really underpowering it?? |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3759 Registered: Feb-05 | you keep asking the same questions man. You need a 1200D if your going to power 2 of them. If your only going to power 1 then just get a Kicker KX600.1 or somthing. |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 96 Registered: May-06 | lol sorry but i just dont understand, im just going for one for now, but the kx600 puts out 300rms and the arsenal is like 750 rms so i guess ill just get the kx600 for one |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 97 Registered: May-06 | what about this amp? http://cgi.ebay.com/BRUTUS-600-WATT-X-1-RMS-1-OHM-ILLUMINATED-AMP_W0QQitemZ97172 28070QQcategoryZ18797QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 3760 Registered: Feb-05 | The Arsenal is dual 4 ohm which means you can only wire it into 2 ohm or 8 ohm. That kicker kx600.1 puts out 600 rms @ 2 ohm. Just check it. |
Bronze Member Username: SplmonsterPost Number: 98 Registered: May-06 | oh mah bad man i dont really gett the wriring stuff well thanks for straightening me out lol and sorry for asking the same question, and i swear this will be the last one, how should i wire it to 2ohms like that is there any special way? |
