Well my system is complete
System Specs:
240 watt Audiovox AV15100 CD/DVD/MP3 With a flip out 7" monitor
Kicker K57 in the front doors (Running off the CD player)
Kicker KS69 in the rear sides (Running off the Kicker 150.2 Amp)
Kicker KX150.2 Amp (Rated at 205 per channel)
Kicker KX600.1 Amp (Rated at 710 per channel)
Diesel Audio 1.5 Cap FareAd
2 Kicker 12" CompVR Subwoofers in a Custom Sealed and Ported Box (Running off the KX600.1 Amp)
Marine Battery in the trunk to power the whole system

So far my trunk hops about a half an inch in the air when it hits and the only thing I have broken so far was my mirror that wont stay on...

looks good. maybe you and i should meet up to compare systems... haha! when i blew both my voodoo bass amps, i was going to go with the kx600.1, but i feel a hundred short so i when with the kx400.1. still hits hard, but i wanted the one with the cooling fan. but whenever i want to change i will sell this one and go with maybe the kx600.1 or the kx1200.1. take come pics when you get a chance. also congrats with it!!

KX600.1 is more than enough dude believe me I was thinking about going with a 1200.1 but the 600 hits MORE than hard enough if you go anymore youll definetly damage your car lol... hold on ill go take pics right now

Out If I would have faced them twoards the seats I would have broken whoever was sitting in the back seats back... lol they allready give you one hell of a massage facing the out
 
looks nice, but i guess you are not going put anything in your trunk...lol! should of did the stealth install like i did, put the amps behind the sub box!

i hear ya. if you want something done, you want it done right!
 
I'm gonna go ahead and say YES there is probably a harder hitting mark somewhere....

But being loud isn't all its cracked up to be

I have been sorely disappointed in the build quality of the KX line that has come out of Kicker... And their R&D...

They can only recycle product lines so many times....;)
 
Are we talking MAX power or RMS power???
I have 4x Infinity Cappas running on 70 watts RMS each, from my JBL 300.4 amp.
Then I have 2 audiobahn subs (AW1008T) running from my audiobahn amp (A2200HC) at 1800x1ohm RMS! Also have a 1 Farad capacitor to keep the lights from dimming. Max power would be somewhere in the 3000 range, don't even know because it is inaccurate to measure in max power.
 
i got a 10" w7 and been pounding it basicly all summer and now my sun roof and rerview and trunk rattle :mad:
when i get my 2nd 10" ill have a comp with you too ha :)
 
people i don't want to rain on your parade but please take a word of advice from a old person. when i was in service as a jet mech , racer, highpower rifiels, steamfitter low freq. sounds will deffintly and permantly destroy your hearing. when you can see 3 foot of concret floting from sonic waves and feel it going thru you. you will pay a price. not being able to hear lifters in an enigne or vaccum leaks. crickets and birds. and a constant ringing. plus not being able to hear some of the instruments at a music event. please use the power you have wisely but still enjoy it. jd.

Very good point. 99.99% of the time i keep the volume at civil levels. But when people point at my amp on the rear deck and ask what is that?? They get a little surprise :D .

I dont even know the max power of my kicker AMPs cause kickers dont post there max power only RMS on the box's my RMS at the lowest would be like 948 if I am counting it correctly which im pretty sure its higher
