I have owned the Kicker KX400.1 very good, clean, powerfull amp. Had 0 problems with it.

hey, i had the kicker kx 600.1, and wow, biggest waste of money yet. i changed it for 2 channel pioneer amp that was 760 watts and about 700 bucks cheaper, and the only difference was the 600.1 was a little bit cleaner bass, i was running 2 12 inch type r's

I've never been a big Kicker fan. Have you looked into the JBL BP amps? On a stock 12volt electrical system, you should get about the same out of a JBL BP600.1 as you would a Kicker SX650.1 (that and the JBL is 1ohm stable and probably cheaper in price) ------------- Squirrel

ya thats for sure, kicker i think is way over priced, why not try a memphis 1000d, i have one those and they probably have the best effeciency rating of any amp, and they actually put out that 1100 rms
