Im getting 2 12" L7 subs. ive looked up the amp on the net all over the place and it says it runs 1500 watts @ 1ohm. but when i go into the dealers they tell me thats wrong and that it really runs 1500 watts @ 2 ohm. i found this amp for a good price on ebay but i need to know more about it. can anyone help me out? |

New member Username: Basslovin24Washington U.S. Post Number: 2 Registered: Mar-08 | so then i can confidently buy this amp and know that i can wire it to 1 ohm? i havent bought the subs yet. i needed to find out the real ohm load this runs at before i bought them |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3368 Registered: Sep-06 | Why don't you add a liitle more money to the amp and get something new for a little more. I would not buy used subs unless you know the people because you have no idea how they been treated. |

New member Username: Basslovin24Washington U.S. Post Number: 8 Registered: Mar-08 | well i was told that all i would need was a yellow top battery and 0 guage wires (already have). is this charging system good enough? im putting it into a 96 accord |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3377 Registered: Sep-06 | How big is your alternator? |
|
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3378 Registered: Sep-06 | Take a look at this and you will understand what I im talking about. http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp~TID~73496~PN~1 |

New member Username: Basslovin24Washington U.S. Post Number: 9 Registered: Mar-08 | so if i get a yellow top and upgrade those 3 wires i should be good to go? what kind of wires are they and where do you buy them? |
|
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3381 Registered: Sep-06 | Well that depends on how big your alternator is? Upgrade with the same size wire as you already have.(0gauge) Take a look at kinetik batts. http://www.kinetikaudio.com/intro.htm |

New member Username: Basslovin24Washington U.S. Post Number: 10 Registered: Mar-08 | what do you think about the kicker zx 1500.1 amp. i could get one of those and 2 2ohm subs. do you think those amps are pretty nice and can make the subs hit hard? |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 5226 Registered: Dec-05 | i wouldn't buy refurbished subs IMO. Amps are ok, but subs :S... |
|
Bronze Member Username: Basslovin24Washington U.S. Post Number: 11 Registered: Mar-08 | yea i found a package deal with a ported box and 2 brand new 12" L7's and they're 2 ohms. i heard that kicker amps are really under rated too and they put out a ton of power |
|
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3382 Registered: Sep-06 | Yes kicker amps are good and underated and that ZX1500.1 would bang the hell out of those L7's. Always build your own box if you can't have someone who can but make sure it is to spec for the subs you get. Are you set on Kicker L7's if not what is your budget for subs? |
