    Re: Kicker subs

    They are decent entry level subs. Are you getting them from a retail store? If so I suggest looking around online. You can get a pretty good sub for a steal if you look in the right places.

    I had them. I also ran 2 12's - sealed. They were my very first subs...at the time I thought they were the loudest on the market. I was broke at the time so I hooked it up to one of those 800 watt Pioneer mono amps and it did just fine.

        Maybe able to get away with 8 - but for the sake of safety and probable upgrades in the future - I'd go with 4.

          do you have to get an amp that has the exact amount of amps or can you go higher like if i have two 300 watt (at peak) subs do i have to get a 600 watt amp? or can i get like an 800 watt amp

            If your subs peak is at 600 (combined) dont get a 600 watt amp, get an amp that equals the combined RMS power, peak dosnt mean anything.

              does the amp and the rms have to match up perfectly?

                No, aslong as ur amp has settings on it, i was just saying match it so you dont waste money. If you put it up too high, youll wreck somthing and it will sound crappy.

                Edit: oh and if you havnt bought the Kickers yet, i dont suggest them.
