Bronze Member Username: BigbenPost Number: 19 Registered: Oct-06 | ok what if i get 2 L7's that are 2 ohm and hook them up to a kicker kx2500.1. would this amp blow the subs because the rms wattage is more than the sub rms??? should i get a smaller amp that is around the same wattage but not over? |

Bronze Member Username: Aj1218Post Number: 27 Registered: Jun-06 | yea that's true. A high capacitance capacitor can end up draining the battery more |
