  11. WANTED....Kicker kx2500.1

    in Want To Buy

    Posted

    i could be wrong but i dont think kicker amps are 1ohm stable... just 2ohm although i dont know anything about the kx series just the sx and zx

    I had a kicker rep tell me the kx is 1ohm stable even though they might not advertise it. I have one right now, and ran it for about 6 months at 1ohm daily, and beat the livin shit out of a solo x and had no probs....

    I dont even know if this is the way I want to go, but I have all kicker system, and dont want to wonder away from it...

    but I need 4500-5000 watts rms.....

    NOT going warhorse.....LOL

  15. question about sub distance...

    yeah that seems to be a little to small, how wide is your port? i've always heard that you should have at minimum your port width away from your hatch

    ya, I heard that to, example...6" deep port, should be 6" away from the nearest obstruction....

    mine is 6" deep.....but to get the cubic ft i needed for the subs, I had to sacrifice the room for the port...but the port is 39.25" wide, so it can breath ok under normal listening....i would think...

    It looks like your fine with the subs to the roof, but it looks like your port/box is too close to the hatch. how much room is there from the hatch to the port?

    Edit: when the hatch is closed.

    the back of the hatch is curved, so at the most in the middle would be 3", and I know that is to little, but i dont pound the subs for my daily use, when in a comp, i push the box up towards the front of the car, then I have almost 9".

    my back seats are angled, so that is why I have the box the way i do...seats go down, and I have that extra 6" of room to use.

    You just can't take a box out of a car that does a certain number and expect that by putting it in a smaller car it will be louder.....I've had boxes in my Burban that I've swapped out into the cab of my S10's extended cab and it sounded like ass... Gained maybe 1- 1/2db's but not the magic "jump" I was looking for by moving everything to a smaller space.

    My S10 likes to tuned alot higher then the Burban.

    Best bet would be to build a box that is tuned to your honda and then put the equipment you have in the Wagon and see what it does.

    :8)

    LOL, BTW, my box is 12.76 cubic ft, i dont think i could even cram that box into a civic... :rofl:

    I believe he has 2-solox's dual 2ohm(not sure what size) and a kicker 2500.1? So Im not sure your gunna see 150's unless you do a crx with area ports, you might see that with 91 civic hatch. It also depends on the build, like 1Low said you won't be able to just move it. I would rebuild it for the 91 but thats just me talking becuase I own 2 of them and love those cars.

    yup, your right cr@sh, thats my system....I'm looking for another kx2500.1, but not having any luck. I realize 150 is a hard number, and i dont think my 2600 watts will do it....

    can u suggest a good amp that is about 4500-5000 wrms? money is not an option, i just dont think i want to run 2 seperate amps on 2 seperate subs....

    maybe....it all depends man...some cars meter well and some dont. a civic hatch should get loud though.

    ya, i heard that. when I fix my box, i should be hitting around 147-148, in my station wagon....i'm kinda trying to hit that magic number of 150....thinking a civic may help me out being alot smaller and all....
