Kicker SX1250.1 or Kicker ZX1500.1?

is the sx1250 pretty efficient or does it drain quite a bit of juice? I know my hifonics amp drains my voltage down in the 11 volt range.
Kicker in my experience are the easiest on the Batt that Ive had.

I got 2 sx1250.1s comin to me house now......one is for a friend.

 
I am in the middle of switching from 4 KX2500.1's to 8 SX1250.1's. My main reason is so that all my sub amps match my 5 SX amps I have on my mids and highs. Plus I can link them all through the sxrc.

In my opinion, you should go with the SX1250.1. Birthsheet will probably say something around 1500 watts.

 
Any more suggestions?
ZX1500 is around $420

SX1250.1 is around $480

I also thought about getting two zx1000.1 but that would be around $590!
The 1500 will put out more power and is cheaper. sx is for people that want really technical fine tuning with their amp...its unessicary if you ask me. Go with the 1500

even thoughthe 1500 is 2 ohm stable and i will be hooking it up at 1 ohm?

 
WOW you can get a KX2500.1 for less than that. Look in the classifieds and use the search.
where the hell have you seen one a kx for less than 450? plz tell me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

KX's and ZX's, same boards, probly slightly better components used on the board of the zx, but essentially same amp. i've run a 1200.1 at 1 ohm just fine. my kx 2500.1 DOES NOT EVEN HEAT UP AT 1 OHM AFTER LONG PERIODS OF BASSING IN DAILY DRIVING. and this is off a relativly weak electrical system, i only have a 90amp alty and 2 red tops. it's efficent, and handles 1 ohm like a champ. in fact with a stong electrical i could probly squeeze a good 2700 maybe?

but back to the question a hand.....all the amps of zx and the kx before have been 1 ohm stable. IMO the 2500.1 took 1 ohm daily beter than 1200.1 but thats probly because my friends car had massive electrical dips and thatll cause osme heat. even with the heat it wasnt even that bad, not blistering hot like some amps ive flet. I vote the zx, the digital stuff is fun and all....but the zx is more practical, and you'll get more than 1500 out of it. even if you run right at 12v youll still get that 1500w, but if you keep ur volts up itll be more.

the controls on the sx seems cool. but for those subs itll sound better haveing that little extra juice for them. i mean controling the crossover and some things digitally is fun and all, but i dont see there being a huge differance in SQ, if so probly wont be much, and the extra juice will make up for it. remember thats supposed to be 1500 @ 2 ohms, with a good alty youl can squeeze more out of it. my 2500 has taken the abuse the best out of any amp in its caliber thats ive used. everythign else just heats up crazy when you daily drive it alot under rated imp. but this amp, and it's like models will give you jsut a lil more @ 1 ohm //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
