12" Kicker CVX?

[86vette07 10+ year member]

I wanted to see if I could get some suggestions on what woofers to use. I currently have 2 DB Drive Plw 12" that are not yet installed, or should I go with 2 12" kicker cvx. Unfortunaly they will be in a prefab ported box, with a Memphis 1000.1 amp pushing them. Which subs are a better choice as far as which will hit harder?

That Memphis amp won't power a pair of CVX's properly.

why is that? I heard they are under rated

They'd have to be crazy underrated for a pair of CVX's. You'd be better off getting one CVX15.

a pair of CVX's = 1,500 watts rms.

That Memphis amp isn't going to do that kind of power @ 1 ohm with average voltage.

It won't power the DB PLW's properly either. Not even close....unless their rating is exaggerated (I've never used them and know nothing about the company)...
