Hello all. I recently purchased a Dodge Dakota regular cab and have two Kicker CVT-10 subs, each in it's own box behind the seats. Anyone have an amp idea? I'd like to stay with Kicker, as I can get it resonably quickly and inexpensive through a dealer and I'd also like to only have one amp running the two speakers. |

Are your subs dual 2 or 4 ohm?

Kicker SX600.2
Kicker ZX850.2
4ohm bridged^^^^^
Or you could go with a Rockford T3002 and run it at 1ohm stereo.
T3002 $179 at OnlineCarStereo.com and it will bang those 2 10's you got. |

Joey what do you mean by running the rockford @ 1 ohm stero? Wouldn't he be able to only run them @ 2 ohm stereo? |

Thanks for the strong response. I think I'm going to go with the ZX850.2 and run at 4ohm. The truck box that I've purchased to put them in suggests that that wiring would be best for my purposes. Thanks everyone who responded. |

Kicker amps are kickazz but that Rockford T3002 I mentioned above will do the job for less money. |
