How well will this amp perform pushing 2 12" Kicker CompVR's?

I amp upgrading from a kenwood 9152D which constantly overheats and goes into protect!

Will the PAA1800DB go into protect alot? And do these amps overheat quickly?

Also, will this amp gimme the power that it says it will? 1100 RMS @ 2ohms?

Or is this amp overrated??

I do not want this amp going into protect alot, and if you think it will, could ya recommend me another amp that wont shut off, with about the same power and same price?

Thanks, any other information is appreciated.

I am looking to buy this amp today. so let me know ASAP. Thanks fellas //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Never even got hot !!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

I ran it @ 1 ohm daily //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

It would get a little warm after like 30 minutes of straight bumping my shit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Badass man! Im just looking to pound the hell out of my CVR's @ 2ohms. They can onyl handle 400RMS but this amp can give them more that they can handle.

No problem bro,

Somehow my Orion2500D gets hotter than my PA2400.

Great line of amps I highly recommend it.

Why don't you get the PA2400 instead ?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

You can always upgrade your subs later on..

my A3000's have fans in them, dont know aboutt he other lines, each one of mine has been running @.7ohms for a while, no problem yet and i hope it stays that way

you could alaways wire a computer fan up to it

Just got one of these amps FREE. (no warranty). Thinking about using it on my Kicker CVX 12's. How should I wire them to it. Since they have dual voice coils? Sealed enclosures.
