okay. well put it this way, which would perform off 12.6 volts at full tilt???

zx2500

what are you wiring the ohms to?

the p3000 is gonna put out more at a certain amount of volts but the zx2500 is more efficient.

2 ohms

my moneys on the 3000.1 .. in fact im buying one.. may but 2 if i can get a good price.. They put out ALOT of power at 1ohm

The kicker hands down. Teammates have tested this amp with great results. The massive may run fine @ 2 ohm, but lower then that it is very instable from what i heard.

The massive will fry at 1 ohm, but has been tested to do 2680 or something like that at 12 volts. Now, I don't have any experience with the Kincker but I believe the Kicker does power at 14.4 volts. Correct me if I'm wrong.

2 ohms

IF you're running @ 2 ohms then me personally, i would go with the 2500 BUT would try to get the KX version if possible. i have ran several kicker amp and never had an issue with any of them. they are pretty efficient and VERY under rated in most cases, they come with a birth sheet if that proves anything?

the kx and zx's are the same internally. i thought i'd heard somewhere that the zx's have no fans, but that doesn't really make sense to me, why would they remove the fan with a newer case?

thanks guys. I think ill keep my MAssive. I just didnt like the blue light across the front.

i have an 05-06 ZX2500 and it has no internal fan. i have pulled it apart and it has provisions to install a fan but im not sure if theres any hardware i need to install one

i ran my kx 2500 @ 1 ohm daily off 13v and it was fine even with a daily beating durring the winter. now during the FL summer with the amp already hot as balls when i come out to the car i would be hesitant to run it at 1 ohm. however even with the blazing hot sun and an already HOT amp the kicker does great at 2 ohms even with these horribly conditions. the kickers are built like tanks, you can put through hell and back before they blow. i've heard time and time again the p3000.1's arent as solidly built and below 2 ohms they fry.

this is the 2nd kx2500 i've owned and i'm more than content with it. it's efficient as all hell, looks sexy, and performs even with tons of abuse time and time again. either kx or zx you can go wrong. thats my vote....
