kicker Solo X amp?

hey guys, I have a 2006 ford explorer xlt.  My mids and highs are kicker RS56.2 components in all 4 doors pushed by a ZX850.4.  I also have a KX2500.1 and two 12" Solo X's.  I am about to have a box built for them, a local shop said they will build the box, double thick mdf, ported, and to take up my entire trunck area, this is roughly 4' x 3' x 3'.  a couple questions, is 500$ a good price for that box? and what would these subwoofers  sound like, i mean the builder is amazing so the box will be pretty awesome but is one 2500.1 enough? any input or tips would be GREATLY appreciated, thanksPioneer Avic D3

$500 sounds abot right if you know hes is building a good box as for the subs kicker says the RMS is 2500 and if im correct the kx 2500.1 put out 2500 max, thats about half the power needed. i would say get more or bigger amps. bring back the rotary phone so i dont have to press 1 to proceed in english

The solo-X can sound amazing if the box is built right...I am incredibally impressed by an X 18 around this area.....like said before if you can...get another 2500, but first and formost what have you done to upgrade the charging system?You are going to need a high output alt and a nice battery to run this one amp alone!   trust me that amp is very very power hungry, and please dont ask about caps, they will not make any power peroid2009 0-1000 Trunk WR 154.0DB 2009 1001+ Trunk WR

I second Jeff, Kicker products are awesome for spl I have 2 12" 05 L7's on a 1200.1 and that pulls alot of current somewhere around 120 amps or so, so definately upgrade at least the big three and probably get a HO alternator. also the 2500.1 is rated at 2500 max power but keep in mind that most kicker amps come with birth certificates that show their max power as quite a bit more for example actual max power on my amp is 1457W. Anyways as they said 2 would be better but your charging system needs to have some cajones.

ok well, i have the dual 2 ohm models of the subs, my amp puts out 2960 rms@ 2 ohms.  but kicker amps are only stable down to 2 ohms, so if i was to add another one of the amps, i would have to run one to each sub getting only 1250 @ 4 ohms.  so does that make any sense to get another one?  and i am going to upgrade my big 3 wires to 0 guage kicker power wire, and add kinetik batteries.  HO alternator needed also? thanksPioneer Avic D3

hey i have a kx2500.1 pushing two 12"  solo x subs.  i knoew that this is only half of the subs rms rating but right now its all that i can afford.  until i can afford another amp and HO alternator.  will adding batteries do anything? because i know that it is not running at nearly 3000 watts, its not really that loud at all.. thanksPioneer Avic D3

That amp will draw over 200+ amps to even get going with power.   It is a real powerhungry amp, untill you fix that problem I woundt consider foing anything elseThere is only one thing in a vehicle that makes power, and thats the alternator.   I would look into a company like Irragi alts, powermaster, or High output alts.     All 3 of the companys should but about $300-$400 for a 250 amp model2009 0-1000 Trunk WR 154.0DB 2009 1001+ Trunk WR

BIg 3 upgrade man for sure, then HO alt then xtra battery in trunk or close to amp w a few farad cap. The best situation I could think of. (0 g wire throughout of course)

alright, well im running the kx2500 along with a zx850.4 and another zx850.4 being added soon.  I guess my plan is to get a HO alt, preferably around 300 amps, and then add two kinetik 2400 batteries in the trunk. sound ok? and does ANYONE know where i can get a good alt for a 2006 explorer?! i cant find one anywhere Pioneer Avic D3
