exxd Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 I have an old kicker 1200.1 amplifier but I'm not sure what Ohm stability it has and I'm wanting to buy an Fi BL 18" dual 1 ohm. My question is what could happen if I wired the dual 1 ohm woofer up to my amp and my amp isnt 1 ohm stable? And how can I find out if my amp is?

Your amp is 1 ohm stable and if you're getting a BTL and want to run it @ 1 ohm get the dual 2 ohm then wire as so- Quote stop making sense you'll kill the argument. Earth, you feel me?

zfrerichs Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 you should post this in the kicker section with a pic of your amp and Polecat will more than likely be able to help you out and a d1 would give you .5 ohms or 2 ohms Quote Roseville, CA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you find out if the amp was 1 ohm stable ? its an older model maybe 5 years old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Thank you Nova. How did you find out if the amp was 1 ohm stable ? its an older model maybe 5 years old! Google. Says it's rated @ 1 ohm. If you can get the part number of the amp I could double check for you. Quote stop making sense you'll kill the argument. Earth, you feel me?

exxd Posted October 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Google. Says it's rated @ 1 ohm. If you can get the part number of the amp I could double check for you. I couldnt locate the part number on it. The only thing I can read is the KX 1200.1 ; It does have some small bar code thingy on the under side with a 10 digit-ish number....
