if you want to get the max out of them then do 2 amps...

What coil configuration do you got??

 

[hazardous0388 10+ year member]

in all honesty, one of those amplifiers will be just fine. they will be really loud as a pair off of that amount of power. but if you want more output, like you stated, you should look into either multiples of that amplifier, or one amplifier thats bigger.

i havent bought them yet that y im asking cuz the zxx2500 only goes down to 2-ohms.

i got 2 each 12" hdc312 copper coils that just arrived ups at my shop

i am running them off a GP3000d pro

hopefully that will be enough juice

copper coils, should be fine and the zx should go lower than 2 ohm really.. from what i've heard about others running them lower daily.

i actaully run my hdc3 18's off of 1 kx2500.1 and it hits pretty **** hard. I'm sure 2 would be louder but ****....1 makes this shit loud enough for me.

you might be able to run the zx2500.1 at 1ohm, but theres no guarantee it will always play. might go into protect mode whenever it wants.

2kW may be enough for you, but it wouldn't be for me. I'm the kind of guy that likes to have a lot of headroom, so I'd probably do 4kW.
