I have a 95 Ford Ranger Supercab. I am wanting to place two kicker solobaric behind the seats. I have already found two truck boxes for them, and I have found out that I have enough room. I have a JBL 1200.1 to power the kicker's. I was wondering if anyone out there knew of any good online stores. Because of my location, there is not alot of stores in my area and if you find one locally they want to overcharge you badly. If anyone knows where I can pick some solobarics at a good price let me know. I want 12's, but my budget my only let me go with 10's. Also I'm not sure which ohm I want. I am also unaware on the best way to wire them to the amp. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions.

Later,
Dustin

try ebay you can find solo barics there for a good price (just buy them from a guy at least with 99% positive feedback)

Alrite well your amp is 1 ohm stable, and it also puts out 1200 wrms at 2 ohms. So if you want to wire your subs together you can create a 2ohm load on the amp if you buy single voice coil 4 ohm subs. If you want to wire each sub individually you can buy dual voice coil 4 ohm subs and also put a 2 ohm load on the amp.  The reason I would go with putting a 2 ohm load on your amp is because your amp will run cleaner and cooler and wont have any overheating problems. Ive had the bp600.1 and my buddy has had the bp1200.1 and both had overheating problems when putting a 1ohm load on them. If you need any wiring diagrams, the 12volt has them on the left section under woofer wiring.
