New member Username: SubsonicDunn, N.c. Post Number: 2 Registered: Jan-06 | yeah kicker sx 1250.1 and sh** .(JL 1000/1 ) same power from 1.5ohm to 4 ohm and from 11v-14.4v same power! kicker needs 14.4volts to get 1250watts@1ohm three JL 12w6v2 wired to 8ohm each will =2.7ohm load |

Also u do realize that the 1000/1 will only put out 500 watts @ 8 ohms so u will be seriously underpowering them |
Bronze Member Username: Vc3Post Number: 11 Registered: Jan-06 | so if I were to get the kicker sx 1250.1 amp how much rms would each sub get? Thanks |

Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 253 Registered: Mar-04 | basic html code [b][/b] [i][/b] etc. use <> instead of brackets. |
Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 254 Registered: Mar-04 | I guess I could have just enabled html code bold = <b>text</b> italic = <i>text</i> not sure what other tags work. It doesn't seem like very many. |

Silver Member Username: UcfsaxmanOviedo/orlando, Fl Post Number: 515 Registered: May-05 | the JL amp would be the best but wouldn't that kicker amp be closer to 1000 or like 900 watts @ 2.67 ohms |
Bronze Member Username: Vc3Post Number: 13 Registered: Jan-06 | is there any amp i could get to fully power them or should I just forget about the 3 subs |
Silver Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 961 Registered: Sep-05 | you could run the 3 on that JL, the optimum power for those subs is about 400-500w per sub, after that your heading into the danger zone for those subs(JLw6 and w7 can be power sensitive). i wouuld run just 2 of those on the 1000/1 |
Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 260 Registered: Mar-04 | --"wouldn't that kicker amp be closer to 1000 or like 900 watts @ 2.67 ohmsThe kicker's 1250"-- Not likely. OCS has it as 1250w at 2 ohms, which isn't correct. It's actually 1250w at 1 ohm, 625w at 2 ohms, so right around 500w at 2.7. Even considering Kickers are under-rated it couldn't do much more than 200w per sub. |

Anonymous | eagle dont listen to chauncey hes just trying to get his post count up. Like opti said that kicker its a BAD CHOICE. |
