so I Have a brand new kicker amp that is 600watts RMS at 1ohm and peak power is 800watts
I used to have a kicker 12 and the gain is about half way and the sub lasted me a couple years and still works but I got some new subs

I got dual Skar SDR 10’s 1200watt rms and 2400watt peak at 1 ohm

now I installed these subs with my kicker amp and didn’t change the gain or anything at all I have a few questions tho about how much to turn it up

yes I know if I turn the gain up to much it’ll start to clip which is bad so if with my old sub the gain was half way can I turn the gain on the amp to 3/4 of the way up and turn up the bass boost ?
because the peak power of my amp watt and the RMS of my subs are 1200watt so I don’t think I would blow them any advice will help
 
You need a 1200w amp or so. Idk what ohms your VC's are in total. I would highly suggest you don't turn the gain and boost way up. You simply need a bigger amp if you want all you can get out of those subs.

Is this a blue or blue/white wire from the Kenwood? The ACC wire is red and although that should turn on the amp, it is not the prefered wiring...

The sound deadening is going to be more about preventing vibration from metal surfaces and adding unwanted noise. Does it have the JBL system...
