    I got four of these today with the kicker enclosure and the kicker 2400.1 amp and I can't breathe in my whip and my wifes hair blows everytime the bass hits! Best 1500 I spent.

    Amp overheating due to ohm load. Those are probably 2ohm min load & are probably parallel to parallel loaded @.05 ohms.
    Recommend series parallel load @2ohms.
    Ohm laws it took me forever to figure that ish out when I first started doing my own installs. Wondered why I was blowing speakers and amps. There's no positive and negative connections no more, it's all dual connections with three different ways to wire it for different ohm pulls.
    That amp by far for probably 30 plus years holds the title of best bang for your buck 💪🏾

    amp is overheating because its not getting enough current from the alternator and battery. you will need to do the big 3 upgrade and add a second battery on systems putting at least 1000w. if you dont do the upgrades you can fry your amp and subs or overheat the alternator

    • @nightstalker824
      @nightstalker824 4 роки тому +6

      Yes big 3 for sure . The amp is overheating because it is a $100 "1800" watt Hifonics amp. Junk amp that probably puts out 600rms at 2 ohms at most. Im sure the subs are wired for 2ohms, because most "loaded" enclosures are. The amp is being stressed, so the protection kicks in. This has nothing to do with the big 3 upgrade.

    Got the 15 in a custom box I built tuned at 32 hz my stock head unit is attached to climate control but it has a stock amplifier so I just grabbed the LC2i Pro to get that lost bass roll off and it clean it up with the ideal voltage for my amp.

    Silicone licence plate frame is key. That thing is a LOC which costs $20 + install. If interested, I have 2 Kicker 12 L7Ss (blue stitching) powered by 1500 CEA rated RMS watts, OFC 4G wiring, 2 F cap, LOC, Q-Bomb box (best $120 spent), and the "Big 3 Upgrade" which is a MUST! Basically is like having 2 gorillas body slamming each other in back of my SUV (300hp Ford Edge)(love this car!)

    That amp on its best day only give you 900rms and that's if you have perfect electrical which you don't. So, around 700 +/0. If you get a decent amp it will sound better. But kickers due to their insane surface area always get loud even on low RMS.

    @5:49 PLEASE tell me you aren't running full range thru those. Sounds like it (i know hard to tell on UA-cam) but also sound like the voicecoil(s) are cooked. That higher pitched distortion sound I'm hearing. Hope I'm wrong. They will still play for little bit but the shorting VC will cause the amp to heat up and can burn out too. Again, hope i'm wrong.

    Ok but like what's the best brand? Idk how to hook up anything like that. I have an 2002 Ford expedition but I want a 10,000 watt system but these sound shops here in Nashville charging too damn much. So how can I go about getting all the equipment without spending damn near $20,000 which is what 2 different sound shops here in Nashville quoted me and that's just for a 5,000 watt system.

    Im sad I bought dual comp r 12s off somebody online. I was saving alot of money over time. Bought a new kicker cxa1800.1 and a new kicker pkd1 1/0gauge wite kit and new bass nob and head unit. Got it professionally installed then found out the subs were tampered with in the box and re wired wrong and the amp basically blew the left sub that was wired opposite and blew 2 fuses. So thats why I'm looking at this video cuz I might buy these subs. I have a bmw e90 328i and the car produces 185amps and is a beast at keeping the 1 12 comp r I have playing at max power. It sounds good but its not enough lol

    those hifonics amps are crap, shit performance, shit ratings, crazy price for some of them. and the amp getting hot for no reason and turning off is because you have a bad ground not completing the circuit properly, make sure you attach it to a metal part of the unibody.
