Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 165 Registered: Jan-06 | What part about the kx1200.1 is already overpowering it already didn't you get? Dude, you've gotta stop making so many posts especially since half of them ask the same damn question. Stick to one post and ask your questions in there, its not like they don't get answered. |

Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 38 Registered: May-06 | hey i was just wonderin is that okay cuz im gettin a damn amp and im wantin it to be VERY LOUD! |

Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 167 Registered: Jan-06 | The zx1500 would fry the sub |
|
Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 39 Registered: May-06 | why would it fry it it says 1000rms to 2000rms tell me why it would fry the sub |
|
Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 168 Registered: Jan-06 | It's 2000 watts max handling. You give a sub from a little less to a little more than its rms rating to get the best performance from it. The zx1500 is overkill, the kx1200 its perfect but just don't crank the sh!t out of it |

|
Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 40 Registered: May-06 | it just seems like the 1500 watt amp would be best for it cuz its not goin over 2000 watts and its not goin over 2000 watts i dont want to bridge them amp cuz it says RMS Power: 1,000W x 1 @ 2 ohms and 2,000 watts at 1 ohm and my sub is a 2 ohm so what should i do |

Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 41 Registered: May-06 | wait up sorry about that i made a mistake on the 1500 watt kicker amp its 1500 X 1 RMS @ 2 ohm so wouldnt that make it sound just right since it can power 2000 watts and 1000 watts peak? |

|
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 700 Registered: Feb-06 | tyler, listen to B, you really need to read that site and to understand, at least a little better, on what your doing. just get the kicker kx1200.1 and run it at 2ohm so the sub will see the 1250+. just watch the gains and volume since you'll be overpowering it by a good bit. but if you're going to buy a second l7 go ahead and get the 2500.1 now. just please, read that site so you can stop asking so many dumb questions, over and over again. and when you ask advice, take it instead of starting yet another post for the same question. |

B's justr trying to help you and, he knows just about all there is to this stuff so you really need to just take some time and read what hes telling you to, after that you will have a good start as to what you are talking about. |

Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 45 Registered: May-06 | would the kx 1200.1 be really loud u think in the escalade? |
|
Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 179 Registered: Jan-06 | That amp would push that sub to its limits, and it is a pretty loud sub. Since it's an SUV, it'll get louder than if it was in a trunk since its in the same cabin as you. Your box will make or break the sound it puts out though. It needs to be large (at least 5 cubic feet) and ported at about 34-36hz for you to get what you want out of it. But like everybody else has been stating, you've gotta do some research on your own and learn about car audio, because your knowledge on this stuff is well... very dull. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 46 Registered: May-06 | well i have a box and its ported but im thinkin aobut goin with a probox 15 single ported from audio express its like 2 times bigger than the box now so u think it would be louder in that box? |
|
Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 183 Registered: Jan-06 | Well, only the specs of it will be able to determine that |
|
Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 49 Registered: May-06 | the probox specs is this Airspace: 4.50 L: 35.25" W: 18" H: 17".......so would that be really loud? |
|
Silver Member Username: Usask8er1Appleton, Wisconsin USA Post Number: 161 Registered: Jun-05 | If you really want it to be loud just by a new sub, cause i have a feeling your already pushing yours to the peak. |
|
Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 185 Registered: Jan-06 | It could be bigger, but that's fine. Thats a weird shaped box... but the only other thing you need to know is what the port frequency is tuned to |
|
Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 51 Registered: May-06 | lol no not at all i have the cheapest amp u can find a sony explode 1000 which it dont do 1000 more like 300 but my sub will barally move and im tired of it so im wanitn to get an amp that will make it pound |
|
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 703 Registered: Feb-06 | then why not forget about the new box and worry about the amp? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 52 Registered: May-06 | what is the port frequency? lol i know im new to this stuff and ive been readin some of that website but what do u mean tuned to? |
|
Silver Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 187 Registered: Jan-06 | The port tuning is what frequency the port is made to stop playing at. Say a box is tuned to 32hz, then the box won't generate much sound below that frequency. Usually lower tuned boxes (2x-36hz) sound better, but put out a little less sound compared to a high tuned box (~37-4x), which gets a bit louder, but loses sound quality. The dimensions of the port determine what it is tuned to |

Bronze Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 56 Registered: May-06 | how much louder would anohter 15L7 be than just one powered by the kicker 1200.1 in a big box? is there much difference and difference in db's? |
