would it be better to get 1 kinetik hc2400... or 2 kinetic hc1200?

yea they are the same, i got the one brand new like 5 yrs ago, and the other one i got from a friend who actually thought he got rid of the amp when you moved out of town. went looking threw his old audio stuff and there it was in its original packaging.

man ive had old kicker comp 10's and 12's, new cvr 10's and 12's, and just recently got the l5 12's and i love all of them. from low end, to high end, i think they put the best product out there. so yea i would like to deff. get another kicker amp. that 2500 looks nasty but its gonna take some time to save up the money for that thing.

i kinda figured i needed ateast 1 more battery maybe 2 but i like to get your guys opinions. alot of you guys on this site are really smart with this stuff, so i apologize for kinda dumb questions. as far as getting a new amp or amps, i know the 2500.1 from kicker is good, but any other opinions for my 4 l5 12's? expecially after i get another battery or 2

so another battery or 2 would solve my current flow? i was thinking maybe 2 kinetic hc1200. any problems with that?

2 orion 1200D amps for 4 L5 12 dual 4 ohms subs. then a crunch 4 channel amp for mids and highs, that amp is like 5 or 600 i think. 1 of my orion amps is pretty new, the other is atleast 5 yrs old.

i just got done with my big three upgrade, and i still have dimming headlights. can someone give me some advise as what to do? also my subs sound the exact same, no difference in sound. i want to add some secondary batteries but not sure what to go with. prolly because im also thinking of getting a new amp. maybe a kicker zx 2500.1 and if thats the case, what secondary battery should i get?

Alright, I grounded the RCA on the head unit lastnight, the engine who've is 100% gone, so that's cool. I unhooked the subwoofer amps when I was having problems so I got one of those installed today before work, when I turned it on the humm/chatter was fine as well but I still don't think I was getting full power, gain is all the way up and still no humm so im happy about that, I will install deco d amp today after work and maybe I will catch lightning in a bottle, prolly not though knowing my luck, thanks for the help guys

I can't load pics because my camera is broke, go figure lol but yea, I will do that when I get off work then ill get back to you. The humm coming from the subs has been going on since I hooked up the new subs and amp. The engine whine just started lastnight. On my head unit, I have 2 sets of pre outs, front then rear/sub. The subs are hooked up to rear/ sub. The front pre out is going to my amp with the mids and highs. And that is the amp with the engine whine.

Sorry man im just trying to get all the advise I can, and learn as much as I can.

It says in my manual if I piggyback 2 amps, have one in master and 1 in copy position. The humm/ chatter is not loud but it is noticeable when the volume is off. If I unplug the rcas it does stop. Is that clipping that I hear, just constant chatter sound? Of I adjust the gains it goes away, but then the gains are less then half way

So based on the info i've given you guys, aside from me not doing the big three upgrade, yet. Is there anything else you guys can think of as to why my issues just won't go away, or do you think this head unit is the issue? Once I ground the RCA'S do you think that will solve my problems, and to answer the question, when I start my truck and unplug the RCA'S does the humm go away, yes it goes away. Is that bad or good?

Well you tell me cause I really don't know, all I know is the RCA'S are all monster brand. They are all shielded, that's all I really know. They cost me like 50 bucks each lol

Ok I will try that RCA ground next, do you think that will solve the humm for the subs along with the engine whine for the mids and highs or are they seperate issues?

I ran power and RCA'S on both sides of the truck. Each side is for each amp.
