Phoenix gold 600.1 or kicker 750.1?

[capitolj80 10+ year member]

I'm gettin a couple of Poenix gold rsd12's (350rms each). The final listen guy at PG suggested a 1.8 cu. sealed box (per chamber of course), so thats what they'll be sittin in. The only question now is which amp i wanna go with. these are the single vc 4 ohm models, so i'll be running them at 2ohms. I'm pretty sure i wanna go with either the kicker kx750.1 (claiming 750 rms @ 2ohms) or the Phoenix gold radial 600.1 (claiming up to 650 rms @ 2 ohms). Part of me wants to go with the PG cuz im a fan of uniformity and i'm pretty sure they had the rsd 12's in mind when they made it. However, even 650 wouldn't give those subs all they can take and kickers 750 would....just not sure which way to go.....anyone familiar which both these amps could really help...thnx

they are both great amps but the kicker will put out a good bit more power. I had a zx750.1 and actual birthsheet power was a little over 900 watts. The PG will do its rated power and maybe a bit more, but the kicker will give you the most wattage.

Neither.. I would go with a 1200.1 for the rsds atleast.. I also dont see much of a point mixing name brands when the difference in power wont be audible to begin with.. The sds are heavily underrated aswell.. Either will work fine though.
