If I got the 2ohm 18 and didnt have the amp for awhile can you wire two 2ohm coils to a 2ohm load? :noob:

Kicker-god. the amps may work at different at RMS though? Wouldnt if they arent exactly the same be bad?

Louisanna base- I know it would be BA. lol

Supercharged- I'm really wanting to now.

how is the solo x 18s motor bigger than the 12? if its a different motor on the solo x 12 then technically its not a solo x...

a lvl 5 10-12-15-18 all have the same motor, just a different basket and cone size...

why would it be any different?

honestly, i wont give my opinion on kicker, but the 18 will play all kinds of music... just depends on what you tune the box to

Not all companies use the same motor structure for all sizes. I believe Kicker has different motors for the Solo-X 10(& 12) and the Solo-X 18.

Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks :)

So my amp runs at 2ohm.. So I need a 4ohm sub.. But if I get another Zx1500.1 I'd need a 2ohm then..

then technically thats a different sub.... even if its labled a solo x...

different motor = completely different ratings

You can always use your current amplifier, run it at 4ohm. And then once you get another, link each at 2ohm for a 4ohm final load.

I love 35, it can hit up into the 45s and down to around 24..

but thats MY personal prefrence.. some people like 38, who listen to rock more.. i wouldnt personally go over 40 though
