    Help me replace my CVRs

    I've got great speakers that make great sound. I just want the subs to have fun. I like to feel the bass. So SPL is more important than SQL to me. I'm thinking about trading my DX1000.1 for a DX750 or Zx750 (whichever it was) and selling my CVRs. The 12 inch L7 will cost me roughly 300 - 400 so...

    Help me replace my CVRs

    Got a 2006 Ford F-150 extended cab. Regular ******* back doors not a crew cab. Right now I've got a Kicker DX1000.1 amp (1000 watts @ 1 ohm) and two Kicker CVR 12s in a ported box. Thing is I have to pull the box out too often for it to be any use to me. I can't fit boxes under my seats or in...

    Kicker 10DX1000.1

    Got a local deal to swap for same subs, but 4 ohm. Now I'll be able wire them down to 1 ohms and be able to use this this amp to it's maximum potential. Thanks for the interest though.

    What are your thoughts on this amp?

    I know it's from Best Buy, but I have a gift card from there with 150 dollars on it. So I'm going to just go ahead and use it on this purchase. I've got two 12" Kicker CVRs (DVC 2 ohm) wired at 2 ohms. This amp will hit their RMS (800 total). Both subs are wired to one terminal cup so I prefer...

    Kicker 10DX1000.1

    Trade for amps only. I'm looking for an AMP that will do at least 1000 watts @ 2 ohms .. prefer one that will do around 1200 watts @ 2 ohms. As long as it runs cool and is also in great condition I would trade.

    Why do I keep blowing fuses?

    Went to an actual audio shop and they said that the MECP guy at Best Buy was an idiot for recommending an 80 amp fuse for the amp. Said the amp was pulling too much power for it and recommended 125. Sadly the front passenger brake seized on my 06 F150 last night so my truck and system are in...

    Why do I keep blowing fuses?

    Yeah I keep trying to post this but it freezes. I re-read through the manual instead of listening to the guy at the shop.. For starters, this amp is infact 1000 watts @ 1 ohm. I cannot get two DVC 2 ohm subs to hit it. I would have to wire in series, hit .5 ohms, and lower my gain to hit my...

    Why do I keep blowing fuses?

    I screwed up when putting all of this together. My subs are 2 ohm DVC and the amp is 1000 watts @ 1 ohm stable. Well I cannot wire the subs to 1 ohm, so have to stick with 2 ohm. The amp is 550 watts at 2 ohms. I should be able to turn everything wide open. However, my gain was 3/4 turn and I...

    Why do I keep blowing fuses?

    Meh, to hell with the shop I was talking to that said not to go over 80. Just picked up the manual to see if it was in there and I noticed it said used 1 x 100 Ampere. Guess I just answered my own question.

    Why do I keep blowing fuses?

    I'm talking about the fuze on the amp power cable that runs to the battery. It's a 4 gauge. When I got this new amp (Kicker DX 1000.1) every time I turn the amp up it blows the fuze. Nothing is grounded and I cannot for the life of me figure out how it keeps happening. I first had a 50, now...

    Help me finish this build .. I'm lost

    So yea, re-wire my sub in series which = 2 ohm load @ amp and wait for the brown truck so I can finally turn this thing on. Now I just need to find a manual for how to tune the amp.

    Help me finish this build .. I'm lost

    Dual 2 ohm. I made 2 mistakes: 1) Didn't realize that 1 dual voice coil sub @ 2 ohm = 1 ohm load on amp and 2 dual voice coil subs @ 2 ohms = .5 ohms Having both subs wired @ 4 ohms would yield a 2 ohm load on my amp. and 2) The Kicker DX 1000.1 amp is 1000 watts @ 2 ohms. Where as I was...

    Help me finish this build .. I'm lost

    I am new to this and am learning as I go. Here is where I am. Got my hands on one of Kickers Loaded Enclosure boxes for CVRs. Got two 12" Kicker CVRs after hearing they were a good bang for the buck. The box is made to where you wire each sub to one terminal. So I will only have one wire...
