Anonymous | All you need is one 800watt amp you could push them harder but you'll have to pay the money for a quality amp because lower end amps won't push what they say. JBL 800 1 good price on Ebay Kicker kx 800 like $290 on Ebay MTX Soundstream |

New member Username: Jwl1387Post Number: 5 Registered: Jul-04 | Its ok to get the kx1200 even tho its dual 4 ohm subs? And would the kx1200 make the subs pound nice that people would hear it from a block away or what? |

Bronze Member Username: Capulina6Post Number: 25 Registered: Apr-04 | the kx 1200 is a perfect amp for those subs, iv been personally looking for some 12L7s myself and was planning on selling everything to get the kx 1200. i believe that amp is 1ohm stable so it would be perfect for your dual 4ohm subs. just make sure to wire them like this... http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/ISEO-rgbtcspd/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wi ring.html?subs=2&impedance=DVC4x2 how much did you pay for the subs if you dont mind me askin. |

Bronze Member Username: Capulina6Post Number: 27 Registered: Apr-04 | you dont need to click on any link just wire them like in the top picture. those are just both of the choices you have to wire them which is either a 1 or 4 ohm load to the amp. to get the most out of that amp you will need to go with the 1 ohm wiring plan. just look for the top picture that says = 1 ohm. that is the same picture you get if you click under two subs "Dual Voice Coil - 4 ohms x 2" |
