I didnt have the money to buy a big amp so i used this pioneer one i had (Pioneer GM-D8601), but today i was listening to my subs pretty loud and one of the 18's blew i need a recone kit but cant seem to find one anywhere can someone help me find one to buy, and also can someone tell me the amp i should be using to run these 18's with no problems like under powering them or over powering them?

thank you so much everyone for the time to help me.

No sub in the entire world has blown due to under power

So you either running that amp at 0.5 or 2 ohm

Either way at 1/4 -1/2 it rated power you must be clipping them like hell

And because you have d2 you'll either need to run 0.5 or 2

So 2 it is

And that makes all your amp choises close to 1k as you'll want something around 3.5@1

So look at the bc3500, q1-3500, dc3500 sax3500

The q1-3500 would be 1 of the cheaper amps around that's has some quality to it

^^^great fucking answer

Forgot to add the zx series of kicker at all 2ohm so anything at 2

And the T series from rf are rated the same at 2 and 1 ohm

But with the gear you have now

You'll want in pro installed and setup

Because your earOmeater is way off
