What kind of amp should I get for a 12" kicker cvr?

[Setty7]

Ok yeah send me pics and a video please. Should I change my 8 gauge wire to 4 or 0?

Seen 'em at work in many vehicles in the last 6 months. Decent entry level amps. Nowhere near as good as Kicker and that PG Xenon, though.

maybe not pg xenon, but better than other pg amps.

fusion is the most power efficient amp i have ran.
running 2 ohms off a 75 amp alt and a 300cca battery and full 4ga wiring i got no dimmin whatsoever, even full tilt.

however i was getting dimmin off my kicker 08zx350.4 running 2 mach 5 mids @ 4 ohms.

Sure have, still got receipts..and nope they are not as good as PG Xenon or Kicker..

they are more efficient than kicker, that is for sure.
has kicker made any 6kw amps?

besides the warhorse?

8 awg should be good enough for the small amount of power you'll be running, but wiring upgrades are never a bad idea...

if you can might as well get 0ga cause if your going to upgrade you wont have spend money on wire again, and it will help power flow better.
ill get you pics and vids tommorrow when i get home.

if your not gonna go more than like 1500w ever, then 4ga is good.

You can not prove that point blank period...Kicker makes great amps, fusion makes good amps...

and so what if Kicker doesnt make 6kw amps, WTF, does that have to do with anything??

[misfit138]

What does that have to do with ANYTHING? Arc, McIntosh and many other high-end companies don't have a 6k amp either.

Is Fusion better than Arc & McIntosh?

[Setty7]

Ok thanks silver cookie do you know where I can find cheap o gauge kits at?

[misfit138]

I can't believe you're telling this guy that Fusion is better than Kicker & PG Xenon. On top of that, you're telling him to run 1/0 awg power wire for one 12" CVR.

Wow...

[silvercookie]

i think it is like the kicker pwk01 or something like that.

they go for around 90 shipped on ebay.

it comes with i think 20ft run of 0ga for power
a 5 ft run of 0ga for ground
a distrobution block.
and a fuseblock with a fuse, as well as crimp terminals for the wire.

they are more versatile?
fusion makes great amps, so does kicker.
i dont understand why your getting so pissed off for no reason.

no, its not, but it also doest cost 600 + dollars.

Wow...

did you even read my post?

if you know your going to upgrade in the future to something big get 0ga.
if your not get 4ga.
read before you post stupid ****.

i never said fusion was better than phoenix gold.
and i never said fusion was 100x better than kicker.
they each have their ups and downs.
the fusion amp i have is hands down more efficient than a kicker zx400.1 or 500.1

why are you getting so pissed.?

[misfit138]

I'm getting pissed because you sent a PM telling me to stop helping this kid. You're giving this kid $hit advice, man. And it's for the sole purpose of getting a few bucks into your own pocket...

[silvercookie]

i never said dont help him.
just dont shoot down what im selling.
i didnt say anything in this thread about what you posted.

[misfit138]

I didn't shoot down anything, man. I explained how the opening poster could find out the impedence of his sub and recommended an amplifier.

Then you sent me a PM that contained the following message; "can you seriously stop trying to **** up a possible sale of mine? i need the money more than some online sight."

And the worst part? I wasn't even able to respond to this bull$hit PM. Then you went on to say that Fusion was better than Kicker (you said it, no doubt about it), because Kicker doesn't make a 6,000 watt amp. Furthermore, you said that your entry level Fusion amp (that I can buy all day long at the local flea market) "is the same" as a Phoenix Gold Xenon model.

That is not cool, man.

who taught you to read?
and it is not entry level lol.
entry level is kicker zx400 and 500
and i said i dont really know the differences between the phoenix gold and the fusion.

and i was being sarcastic when i said the whole 6kw thing, sorry i didnt point that out earlier.

I read just fine. You said the PG Xenon and your Fusion "are the same". This is a fact.

When the OP asked if your Fusion is better than Kicker, you said "Yes".

Fusion is entry level equipment. Decent, but entry level all the same. No point in arguing this, because it's a fact.

When you think high-end audio equipment, does Fusion come to mind? It d*mn well shouldn't...
