Best budget or used amp for one kicker l7 15

[basswiigee2fix]

Lol. Ok. So like I said I was disappointed with the new Kenwood and Boston acoustic. Any recommendations on something that won't disappoint? Like I said 0 gauge power and ground and big 3 only 140amp alternator tho

that kenwood is 600 watt max and probably barely did 300w... thats around a 750w sub... give it a real 600w and itll sound off... give it 750/800 itll shine best you can for what you got! idk about boston acoustic ... ran alot of the components never their amps and that was the 90s...lol

So what's the opinion on the ppi amps? Good? What about the 1800.1? Would it disappoint? Lol

This would be awesome for you:

Cerwin-Vega HED31500.1D (hed315001d) 1500W Max Class D Monoblock

You can even make an offer on it.

If you go up higher, looks like this is $240:

JBL GTO-1001EZ Monoblock GTO Series Class D Car Amplifier

Cerwin Vega makes pretty good stuff.

You click "Make Offer" button on that page. My first set of components was 5.25" Cerwin Vegas, I liked them. About 2 months ago, got my friend a 4ch cerwin vega amp...he loves it.

Found it. Lol. Doesnt show up in mobile mode. U think that would be better then ppi or something else in that price range?

I probably would, especially if you can get a lower price on it. You need an amp that does full power at 2 ohms. For the price, it fits the bill.

Lol the Kenwood kac 9106d that says it does 1000 rms at2 ohms I just baught and returned made me a little gun shy. Only way it would have done anything with the kicker is with the gain and the bass boost cranked. Same with the Boston I tried. Lol that's why I'm here I obviously have no idea what's good now a days. Haha

Only thing people run that's made my Kenwood is their decks. If I put that CV amp on your sub, I'd expect it to move. If it doesn't, something else may be a problem. What kind of enclosure is your sub in btw? Most people here have custom built boxes, which make a huge difference in output and sound quality.

It's in a ported box it's pretty **** big but I can't tell you exact specs because I baught it in the box. The guy demoed it with a old Kenwood 1000 watt amp and it hit hard and for whatever reason it does hit ok on my old beat down 600 watt "max" Kenwood amp. It's in a 95 f150 extended cab and the enclosure takes up most of my extended cab area. 0 gauge power and ground wires also big 3 upgrade ND alternator is upgraded from the ford 95amp to the ford 135 amp.

Is it single 2 ohm or dual?
