[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7794722, member: 573547"] In Kicker land, Competition is just the brand model name, no more, no less..just a Marketing ploy that worked on you and many other peeps. As far as 2 ohms, that is desirable, most ppl run who run 1 ohm do so simply due to the costs involved to get the same power at a more efficient 4ohms, therefore sacrificing sq and efficiency for cheaper power output, yet it requires more money spent on electrical upgrades, etc..anyway, Did you double check your sub wiring to make sure they are in phase with each other? Maybe the Kickers require a completely different box design? Obviously the difference is in the subs if they are presenting the same load to the same amplifier....perhaps these possibilities are causing you to drive the amp to clipping to compensate? [/QUOTE]
