another amp

[calvin 0]

i have a dilema. i have a zx2500.1 now. i am gonna purchase 2 15.2 orion hcca's next week. but since some faggy ass mofos done stripped my other car i think i wanna put more money into this setup. i have a 6cub ft box @ 35hz for these subs. i am contemplating buying another zx2500.1 to run one amp per sub. i am prepared and fully aware of the elec upgrades need to be successful. so with all this being said what would be a realistic difference in the 2 setups. 2 hcca's wit 1 amp or 2 hcca's wit 2 amps. obviously this is a problem cause i need to buy the subs according to the ohm load they will be run at.

my goal is to have loud and deep clear bass. i want some movement(flex) and i want power. but if there isnt a clear and noticeable difference in the 2 setups why spend the extra.

the setup is going in a 04 towncar.

Unless you're competing, I wouldn't bother.

i wanna b competitive but it is a town car so me doing a lot of extra is not really what i wanna do. so if it wont make a difference then i wont do it.

not worth the extra if you're not gonna compete. I ran two on my solo x 10's and only gained .3 db over the single (i also added two more batts).

btw... the kicker amp can do a 1 ohm load all day.... I use to street beat with mine running the two solo x's at on ohm...

I've dropped mine down to .5 for burps..

ok it can run 1 ohm stable? the specs dont say that. and what is ur wattage when u run at 1 ohm? how long have u had that amp? i would think it would damage the amp.

the amps aren't rated for one ohm use. Mine never got hot, never shut down. Heck at the shows I'd crank it up all the way and walk away from the car for and hour (playing music so people could sit in it)and never had any troubles,. I've personally tested the output over 2600watts at 1 ohm- 60 hz. I never saw a great gain from running one ohm I just wanted to note that it can run the load. I purchased my solo x's with intent of running both zx2500's so I bought dual 1's and when the numbers didn't come up with the second amp I just sold it off to a friend and competed with the one.

I'd sugguest that you get the dual 2 ohm coils on your HCCA's, If you ever decide to get another amp I just wanted you to know that the amps will handle the ohm load.

oh yeah, I ran the amp for one season (six months) then took it out and boxed it back up and it's sat ever since.

currently my car is being run off a 5 channel kicker for my daily.. I didn't compete this season due to high gas prices and lack of local shows

I'd sell it but I'm not trying to. It's just sitting and waiting for me to hook it up again.

I bought it from as a refurb for 625

I'd sell it for for $565 shipped to the lower 48 states

but like I said I'm not really trying to sell it so I'm not real willing to lose a bunch of money on it.

I've got a Brand new (never even taken outta the box to look at) pair of 04SX1250.1's that have been beggin to get hooked up

I can set you up with a brand new solo X 18 too or a pair... both NIB one's been taken out to show people

I've got too many toys layin' around
