Amplifier reccomendations?!

[69 Mach 1]

Hey I got my hands on four 10 inch kicker L7s brand new and i dont know a lot about systems so i was wondering if anyone has any opinion on what kinda amp(s) i should get. The subs are rated at 600w RMS 1200W Peak.... what is it gonna take to get them powered...i was thinking maybe 2000w amp.. please help im totally clueless thanks

IBTM

ahh where did that come from... admin will you pretty please move me?

IMO if youre clueless you shouldnt jump into car audio based on those subs. pick up a nice head unit, speakers, and a sub, itll be plenty, especially if your not an audiophile.

In my opinion and in before the move. (as in a mod will move it to another forum)

for an amp, I would go rockford fosgate... they are highly underrated in power though, you will even see a little slip inside the box that says it. Like 100 Rockford watts is close to 300 random ass Sony watts. Also, if you are new to car audio, you might want to sit in someone's car that has something close to four 600 watt RMS 10s in it and see how you like it. It isn't for everyone.

seriously you're going from no stereo for two years to 4 kicker l7's ?... quite possibly the loudest and hardest hitting sub .. ever?... what, you don't want your glass anymore?

Haha... a broken back window is a good excuse for plexiglass! yay! what do you guys think about power acoustik amps... i might get two 1400w amps..???

seriously, sit in someone's car that has something close to that before you do it lol

2500 watts will make your alternator explode. literally. you'll have a hole the size of your fist in the hood from where the pulley ejects from the engine bay.

seriously though, 4 L7's is going to be overkill

if you already have 4 of them, in all honesty i'd build a box for a single sub and get a nicely matched amp for it... then keep the other 3 for when the first sub, then the next, then the next blows up. and they WILL blow up.
