Amp Choosing help..

Recommended Posts

From what Kicker amps I have heard I'll have to say they got some constant power. On the birth sheet of the Kicker ZX1000.1 its rated near like 1100w right? Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Yeah just looked one up http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_31872_Kicker-ZX1000.1-11ZX1000.1.html 1147 Watts.

I think I might go with it. Any one know when a ZX1000.1 Clips at?

The point where it clips at is dependent on your HU (I believe. Someone correct me if I am wrong.)

I can tell you, if the Zx series is anything like the Kx series, you will love it. I had a Kx1200.1 and it was indestructible. Couldn't kill it, and it put out some power on complete stock electrical. One night, I got drunk and left the system playing without the vehicle on, my battery died before my amp did, and I cannot imagine the voltage that amp was seeing lol.

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

Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.

Look at my signature. I have too many amps. Most of them are too much for what they are on just in case I need more power later.

good point Big. Maybe like a 1500w rms amp would be good if you were thinking of expanding your system but if nothing else you could run 2 of these amps on 3 L7's or 1 DC XL 15 right?

Three L7s? what about 2? could I "strap" the amps some how? :shrug:
