Bronze Member Username: HologramPost Number: 12 Registered: Mar-06 | I was looking into the Kicker ZX750.1 but I would have to put a 4 ohm load. I wanted to rig it at 2 ohms. So any suggestions, my price limit is around $300. |

Bronze Member Username: HologramPost Number: 13 Registered: Mar-06 | The 12, but Im going to have to wire it at 4 ohms, and will only get 350W/RMS, Im not sure if that will be enough. |
Bronze Member Username: HologramPost Number: 14 Registered: Mar-06 | I know they are underrated, so about how much power would it push out at 4 ohms? |
Silver Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 500 Registered: May-06 | is it a 06 model if it is i would see if u could trade it in for a 2 ohm 12 L7 and get that kicker 750 |
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 3213 Registered: Oct-05 | well, what VC configuration is it? because if you have to wire to 4 ohms it must be a 2 ohm sub. if it is 2 ohm sub, why not wire to a 1 ohm load???????? |
Bronze Member Username: HologramPost Number: 15 Registered: Mar-06 | Because the amp isnt 1 ohm stable. |
Bronze Member Username: HologramPost Number: 16 Registered: Mar-06 | Also it is dual 2 ohm sub, so I can wire it at 1 ohm or at 4 ohms. |
Silver Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 503 Registered: May-06 | yea the sub can be wired to 1 ohm if the sub is a dvc 2 ohm subwoofer |

Silver Member Username: Rob_pregRoyal oak, Michigan United states Post Number: 480 Registered: Sep-05 | basically you bought the wrong sub/amp combination. research more before buying next time, or maybe try seeing if you can contact wherever you bought it from and see if they will trade you a dual 4 ohm for your dual 2 ohm. good luck. |
Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 859 Registered: Mar-06 | Buy another L7 2ohm, and get a amp that does 1500 or more wrms at 2 ohms. |
Silver Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 505 Registered: May-06 | yea or juss get a kx 1200 my birthsheet says 1500 watts at 1 ohm and if u get 2 2 ohm 12 L7's wire them both down to 1 ohm then u are set |
Bronze Member Username: Xstokes88San Antonio, Texas United states Post Number: 95 Registered: Nov-05 | thats what i have..2 2ohm 12" L7s and my rf x7 came last week 400 from ebay..rated at 1500 at 2ohms..but it does more..now i just have to get another car lol.. |
Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 865 Registered: Mar-06 | So, X, your all set. That amp will work for those. It will give each @750wrms, if that amp rating is true. Those L7 are rated for 750wrms, but they will handle almost twice that. |

Bronze Member Username: HologramPost Number: 18 Registered: Mar-06 | I havent bought the L7 yet, but I have been planning on getting one for a long time. I dont want to get 2, because I have limited space/money and getting 2 subs plus a more expensive amp is going to run me a whole lot more. But I have decided to either get a dual 4 ohm L5, or a 12" compvx also dual 4 ohm. And to power it I would get the zx750.1. How does that sound? What would be better the L5 or the compvx? |
Silver Member Username: Rob_pregRoyal oak, Michigan United states Post Number: 496 Registered: Sep-05 | i would personally take the compvx because it would sound cleaner. the L5 could possibly get louder, but not sound as clean doing it. but either way, if you havent bought the sub yet your fine. just make sure when you do, you get the dual 4 ohm, wire it in parallel, and you'll have a single 2 ohm load for that amp. |
Silver Member Username: Big_fletchNewport, Ar, Ar United states Post Number: 516 Registered: May-06 | jus go on ebay or somewhere cheap and get one 12 L7 |
Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 867 Registered: Mar-06 | Sorry Holo, Well if your getting a "L" get the L7, or the comp vx. The L5 is the economy model. If you get a dvc 2ohm sub, get an amp that does @800-1000 wrms at 1ohm. Memphis are good for that, and they are fairly cheap. Also crossfire can do 1000@1ohm. Elevation Audio has a nice DX1000.1 for $400 that is 1100@1ohm. There is a lot more choices for amps at 1 ohm then 2. good luck. |
