Hi,

I have a pair of Infinity Perfect Kappa 12.1 subs, I need a good amp to power them. Do you think that the Kicker KX 600.1 is powerful enough? If not what do you reccomend I run?

If those subs are SVC 4 ohm, that amp should be fine. Just make sure you set your gains properly and don't turn up the gain to make the subs louder. Realize that you are pushing 100 watts RMS (total) less than the 2 subs can handle, so don't turn up the gain to compensate. If you can find a mono amp that pushes 700 watts RMS @ 2 ohms, that would be even better, but the Kicker will do as well.

Perfects are pretty efficient, so they will sound great with tat amp. It depends on what you want. If you are trying to drive nails and shatter windows with your bass, then you need to deliver them closer to their max RMS rating of 350 watts per. Otheriwse, they will sing nicely with 100 watts.
