I wouldnt try to run that kicker amp at 1/2ohm daily. You can still wire it to 2ohms (series-parrallel) but each sub will only see about 300wrms. the kx1200.1 is a good amp...nice choice, but not a good match in your situation. You can still make your system work if you get those L5 15's traded out for the DVC 4ohm models. that way you can just wire them in parrallel and you will get a 1ohm load. Just see if you can trade the subs out for DVC 4ohms ones. |
