Kicker ZX2500.1 underated, overated, rated power?

[oxsign 5,000+ posts]

I've got one pushing 4 12" and I'm just trying to get an idea of the actual power I'm getting to them. I have a strong solid 14.4v electrical System (mechman 300 & stock alt (140amp), 2 big yellowtops, 2 runs of 1/0). If I'm getting a rated 2500w, each is getting about 600w. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif it's nice, but I think I might want more. Maybe a bigger amp, lol.

the box was sealed in this vid. It's since been ported, and the subs move alot less.



being underated would be nice, lol.

Kicker ships every amp with a birthsheet, they actually benchtest their amps, meaning if it doesn't put out at least rated power, it's chucked.

I am almost positive that you are wrong. But many have been clamped, and they make alot of real world power.

I bought mine used, so I never got a BS with it. It wouldve been nice to see it though.

most kicker amps i've seen put out more than what the birth sheet says anyways, you'll get a solid 2800 rms at 14.4 and even a little more

The 12"s seem to be a little better. I've only had them in for about a week. So we'll see over time, lol.
