Kicker L3

Every used kicker I've seen are terrible, don't go for it's used.
I got a L3 for a good price, and a Kenwood KAC 9105d (900 watt rms). What should I do to not blow my sub up?

Don't crank your gain.
And the only reason you've had such bad experiences with used products from Kicker is because they deteriorate so quickly. Regardless of whether you buy new or used, they're not going to be 'awesome' for too long.

Why?

That amp actually does a little over 900 rms and his sub is only rated at 400 but most higher end kickers can handle an extra 100 or so but if he puts it over half to much he'll prolly blow that sub

Hello all, I just purchased my headunit and installed it, the amp kit is coming in the mail by Monday and should be installed same day if I have time.
Next thing on the list is a Sub, would you recommend 1 L3 or two round 40CWS124? I would be running a 500 RMS amp for either setup. Just looking to see which set up would throw more bass and sound better.

The AMP I am considering is the MRV-M500 from alpine since they are pretty cheap now.

But it should still be set properly with an o-scope...not just under half? That's why I asked why....why not set it right?
