I need help Wiring 2 Kicker 12' CompVRs and a MTX 15'Thunder 6000.
The Kickers are 2 ohm DVC, 400/800 RMS,25hz-500hz, 86.7
The MTX is 4 ohm SVC ,300/750 RMS, 27hz-150hz, 90.3db
If someone could give me some tips on how to wire this i would greatly appreciate it.Also if any suggestions on an amp would be greatly appreciated as well.

Tips? Sure. Wire the 12's or the 15, not both. This is a good way to introduce all sorts of nastiness into your system.. from plain ole' sloppy response to excessive cancellation, the problems with this are endless. Do *not* mix subwoofer sizes or different types of woofers.

ok let me refine my question then. how much wattage should i get in an amp for best sound. Im using the amp to power only the 12's.

kicker zx1000.1 would work fine with those subs in the correct enclosure.

How much money do you wanna spend on an amp??
