The 1st is the Kicker ZX650.4 http://www.crutchfield.com/S-ds24aPJqZ26/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?i=206ZX6504 The 2nd would be 2 of the Kenwood KAC-8103D http://www.crutchfield.com/S-ds24aPJqZ26/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=120&I=113KAC8103 I'm open to any sugestions or input, Thanks |

Gold Member Username: Its_bacon12Hfl, Ny Usa Post Number: 1251 Registered: Dec-03 | that kicker 4 channel u posted will do the job well IF the subs are single 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm. otherwise you need to get a mono or a 2 channel bridged at 4 ohm |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 2372 Registered: Sep-06 | Jason ctmike is right the kicker zx750.1 will match up fine. I've seen 3 setups just like it and they sound good. Set the gain on your amp to the volts of your head unit and no worries of anything burning up. |

But you can use a smaller amp and it will work just fine, it just won't be as loud. Setting the gain correctly is the key. Most blown speakers happen because people crank up the gain on an amp thats too small and clip the subs. |
