Sold 2 - Kicker kx2500.1 amps $425 each

[matthewo 10+ year member]

you may have seen my old thread for these but i am redoing it so the pictures are on the first post and it shows the lower price in the title. both amps are in good condition. 1 has original box, the other doesnt. both have end caps and bass remote. there maybe a few scratches, but very small ones. these amps are 8/10 cosmetic and work perfectly. 10/10 mecanically. led light works and the fan works, and of course the amp works. some people say there kickers wont do 1 ohm daily. these will. i had a solo x dual 2 ohm wired parrallel to 1 ohm on each amp. they ran perfectly, not once did they cut off, and it sounded great too, not muddy at all. very clean bass. these amps do 2680 watts rms @ 2 ohms according to the birth sheet, so you can expect more power at 1 ohm.

these amps are also very effecent.

are they 1 ohm stable

 

[matthewo 10+ year member]

yes, as i stated above i ran them at 1 ohm the whole time i have had them. no problems at all never cut off.

IF you have the proper electrical for them they're 1 ohm stable. it's not a matter of some of them will do it and some won't, its that some people electrical is up to par, and some aren't.

well i guess mine was up to par. i had 2 kicker 2500.1 and 2 everstart marine maxx 900ca batteries in the trunk

thats not even close to being up to par..

 

[matthewo 10+ year member]

well ****, they work at 1 ohm with a crappy electrical system i guess i just proved it. but i think im not going to sell them, i will just keep them.

you proved... that you ran 5000w rms with 2 amps that pull up around 300 amps each, on a stock alternator with 2 walmart batteries? ok. you sure showed me.

i know that one of these, at 1.4 ohm nominal, is enough to drop my system with 1/0 all around, dual yellow tops, and a 240a alternator to 12.5v at full tilt at idle. but what do i know?

by the way i'm not trying to shit on your thread or anything, these amps are quite effecient, and probably my favorite amp i've owned so far.

but fact of the matter is, it's not sold as a 1 ohm stable amp. it will do so, if you can supply the current it wants. if you can't, and you push it to hard, its going to go poof same as any other amp will.

i dissagree, these amps are strong and they are not like some other amps that hate low voltage. i wouldnt say they are ia 20.1 quality on taking low voltage. i have seen those run on 8.9 volts.

also i have a "high amp alt" iraggi, if you want to call it that. really iraggi, in a stock case is not a good high amp alt. the extra windings not much can fit in a stock case for my inifniti j30. so really a 200 amp iraggi is no where close to 200 amps max output, when it is in a stock alt case. i have 2 runs of 0 guage. optima up front and the walmart batteries in the back must work good cause you seem to be having more problems with voltage drops then i ever had.

now as far as the kickers not liking low voltage i dissagree. when my iraggi alt died, i didnt notice at first and i was still running the system. im sure the voltage was droping well below 12 volts.

i have never blown an amp out of the many amps i have owned, maybe i just can tell whats too much, or maybe im just lucky.

all i'm going to say is that if you ran these amps so hard you killed a 200a iraggi (not even close to a big enough alternator for running 5-6kw rms, 3 batteries or not) then these amps have seen abuse. not to say they're any less reliable than a brand new kicker, but they've seen heavy voltage drops, likely well below the 12.5 i see at full tilt idling.

 

[matthewo 10+ year member]

the alt didnt die from that, it died from a power stearing leak.

and you guys wonder why everyone goes to ebay to sell things.
