[QUOTE="t-money, post: 3198877, member: 562029"] Wow just Wow, guys complaining about how there amp runs under the recommended ohm load rating. Kicker doesn't take imp rise when recommending their ratings. So you need to have it wired for 2 ohms.I have my zx1500,1 running at 2 ohms with 0 problems, my friend had his zx1500.1 running at 1 ohm with no problems. The zx1500.1 is a power hog at 1 ohm though and i would recommend two batteries in the trunk. i know you run a kx2500.1 too and the funny thing is i don't hear these problems with the zx2500.1 though. Wow, i can't beleive you said this is a common problem with kicker amps. Of course its a common problem cause you guys are running it lower than recommended. Every car is different, just because some may be able to run them at 1 ohm doesn't mean eveyone can, electricals vary too. Well now i seen it all, guys complaining about the performance of an amp thats ran under what the manufacturer recommended. Why anyone would buy two subs with a final ohm load of 1 ohm when they bought a 2 ohm amp is beside me.[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/*******.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
