budget? kicker kx/sx 1200 are great choices as well

ikesound sells us amps now? anything with a good 1000-1200 watts at 1 ohm will work. so many options

crossfire vr1000D, cadence z1200 or z7000, orion 1200D, kicker kx1200.1, rockford T1001BD, pg xenon or tantrum 1200.1, and the list goes on

350 give or take

with the new zx coming out from kicker, they are most likely gonna clear out the kx's and that means you can probably pick one up brand new authorized for $350. of course they can be had cheaper used or at unathorized stores. the kicker amp will do rated power. mine benched at 1465 watts rms. plus buying authorized means a 2 year warranty //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i dont know, i was looking at the orion 1200D for a while cuz i know where to get it for like just under 300 shipped with warranty, but, on the other hand, i already have a kx350.4, so the 1200.1 would look good next to it but i dont know if i can fit both of them on the back of my back seat that folds down, whats why i was looking at the us amps amp, because its small and a really good brand

another thing, i have a 160 amp alt but my lights are dimming a little already with just my 350.4 and a BX1205 so i need an amp that is effecent as possible

recap, i need a small, effecent, powerful amp that will be far superior to my BX1205 and power a SX15 at one ohm,

thats kind of alot to ask but what are your suggestions

the crossfire would be a good choice. 1000 watts rms at 1 ohm at 12.5 volts. they are underrated and do about 1300 watts. crossfire claims they are 86% effecient, but idk. nice amps. my vr2000D was nice.

vr1000D. crossfire ranks near the top of the list. it is as good as kicker or orion if not better. crossfire doesn't authorized online sales, so you'll have to look at ebay.

i found it on woofersect but it will be like 440 with shipping, is it worth it?

how do you think it would compare with that US amps amp?

i think i might have narrowed it down to those two, but i will have to start saving

us amps is pretty solid. i haven't really kept up on them but i hear there newer models are not as top notch as there older models
