The recommended RMS for my speaker in the box that it is in is 750-1000 RMS. the kicker ZX750.1 wont be struggling or put too much strain on the amp to push it will it?

No the kicker will be fine, they usually are in the 900 watt range.

Definitely the Kicker... they are very good amps, and kenwood amps are like the exact opposite, they suck.

Also Kicker amps are underrated so it will do more power than it's rated for.

I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION...SEE RIGHT NOW I HAVE A DUAL 2 OHM SOLO-BARIC L7 15" POWERED BY THE KAC-9103D. AND THE AMP OVER HEATS IN 40 SECONDS WHEN I PUT IT ON THAT SONG BY PETEY PABLO - FREEK A LEEK. AND THE SETTINGS OF THE AMP ARE AS FOLLOWS: GAIN 1 VOLT, LPF 55 HZ, AND BASS BOOST AT 0 DB. I AHVE TEH SUBSONIC FILTER AT 25 HZ. I JUST THINK IT IS A SHITTY AMP. THAT IS WHY IM INQUIRING ABOUT THE KX750.1. BY THE WAY I AM GETTING THE DUAL 4 OHM SOLO-BARIC L7 15" TONIGHT AND THE KX750.1 ON MONDAY AM I DOING THE RIGHT THING... I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS AFTER THIS ONE IS ANSWERED. THANK YOU!

Kicker amps are built very well and comparing Kicker to Kenwood is like comparing apples to oranges if you know what i mean.

Shea, i think your problem with your setup is DVC config. I don't know if the kenwood is 1 ohm stable, i think it's not. If you wired that 2 DVC in paralell, that's the reason of overheating.

Difference in output isn't big. You won't notice it to your ears, but difference in quality, hell yeah. Kicker all the way cuz kenwood power supply's are sh1t

Ok the kenwood amp says 1 ohm stable and i called into kenwood tech support and asked how many watts it puts out at one ohm and they were like I dont know about 900 RMS. Igot a duel 4 ohm solobaric L7 15" last night and it does sound alot better I havn't tested the amp for overheating yet but f*** it i can get the ZX750.1 for onlt $295 brand new. thats only $70 more than what i payed for the Kenwood.
