The DD 9512's are very nice IF you have 10,000 plus watts to put to them.
The kickers are loud on much less power, but will hold up to insane amounts for competition use

kickers subs is more good for bass if you drive them whit a the power you need

not sure if that was a question or what that was.
But the Kicker's are better on limited power.
The DD's take to much power to use the full potential of them

l have only 3.25 cf space right now l have a kicker solo baric 12 l7 in 3.25 cf l find the dimentions in kicker site if l make 2 s12 l7 subs at 1.625 cf each sub it will be louder l have kicker kx 2500 and the box is ported thanks and happy chrismas and happy new year

if you have limited space, then I would make it a common chamber box. both subs in the 3.25 cu ft you have availible. With that much power it is almost safer to run the box on the smaller side of specification.
With 2 subs if you can load the amplifier with a 2 ohm load then it will be louder then just one sub.

You want midbass from a sub...? What is the sub? I am not familiar with part #'s. Same with the amp....what's the brand?

I found the amp....it's a butt kicker (no pun intended) Wire the DVC sub for 2 ohms. Make sure your charging system and battery can deliver. | Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 2 or 1 ohm mono |  |

It all depends on The box, the vehicle, the power provided for each sub
there are 2 many veribles, I can make 2 10's louder then anything most people have heard in thier life, but it also ake 6600watts RMS and lots of power to run the amps, the right enclosure and a car that is very friendly for SPL use.

if l conect two kx1200@1ohm did they put the same power like kx2500@2ohm thanks

Either configuration should yield the same result (or close enough that your ear won't detect). Do you realize that to get that kind of power you'll need:<> An alternator with a <>minimum <>140 amp output capacity. Either setup draws 300 amps to produce full power. <>At least one extra battery located close to the amplifier(s). <>1/0 gauge power and ground feeds from the alternator to the main battery then to the extra battery.

ok thanks for reply you think 140 amps enough for those amps and for know l am going to conect one kx1200 @2ohm about 600 rms

With an extra battery you'll be fine. If you go with one battery for now, read the voltage while driving hard if it remains above 13 volts and also see if it overheats to test for lack of battery power.

If you strap[ the kx1200.1's yopu cannot go below 2 ohm. it will put out 2500WRMS at 2 ohm strapped for 2 amps and they will draw upwards of 200 amps of current
They will run at 1 ohm strappd but will draw upwards of 300 amps and will get very hot, but they will run for a short amount of time before going in to protect
If your voltage falls below 11 volts then they wil shut off anyways
