I just bought 2 12" kicker CVR's, 2 ohm dual coil, in a ported box. I was wondering some opinions of what type of amp I should push them with. I had an Alpine MRP-1000 in idea for $275.
Any opinions would be appreciated, say what you want to say. Thanks for anyone that can help.

Hey caveman, im going to assume that you purchased the Kicker 07CVR122 correct? If so, you are going to be looking for an amplifier that can do the following:

1. 800 Watts RMS at 0.5 Ohms (Parallel)
2. 800 Watts RMS at 2 Ohms (Parallel/Series)
3. 800 Watts RMS at 8 Ohms (Series)

The most logical answer in this list is option #2. Below are a few examples of amplifiers that you can look into:

Kicker ZX750.1 (underrated):

So the 1000 alpine wouldnt be a good match? It would give both subs 500 rms.

Look at this--http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ml2TMCCVrKA
I think that the alpine 1000 would do great, especially for the price.

Those were just simply suggestions so you can get an idea of what you need. That Alpine amplifier will work on those Subwoofers.
