Right now i have two kicker 12" L7's and a KX1200.1. I was wondering if i added another kicker L7 and another kx1200.1. Wired the subs in series. To get a total of 2.67 ohms. How many watts would each sub be getting. Would it be enough to hit 150 in a 89" honda prelude.

Thanks

Not in a street type setup, on the term lab.     With 2 KX1200's and 2 l7's in a pure SPL box it can be done.

Pure SPL cannot be used on the street without destroying equipment....You also need to look into a larger charging system to power those 2 amps

Pure SPl boxes are tuned to 45+ hz....our last vehicle has a box tuning of 55 hz, push the subs below that, much below that and you are going to run into trouble, let alone it will sound like junk

The KX1200's will run at a low impedance for burps,   but you try to push them for very long at that low impedance, again, trouble

If you were looking for somthing streetable, and will possibly do over a 150 on the term lab, I would run 2 KX1200's and (3) S12l7's    


Depending on the power class you are looking to run in, and what organazation, will decide if you can add extra batteries. ect ect

I agree the first thing you should be looking at is upgrading your electrical system. Because you have all this stuff and your car but it will just end up dying or killing your electrical system from the current demand. Those amp draw 160 amps if I'm not mistaken.
