Would a Kicker 02KX600.1 work? 600w at 2ohm or should I run it at 4 ohms? I got a good deal on it if it is a good amp any one have one, if so what are your thoughts about it?

If you are looking for the best dollar/watt ratio then try the JBL 600.1 It will put out near 700 watts at 2 ohms and is stable to 1 ohm. The only problem is that it lacks the bells and whistles of a more expensive amp. i.e. subsonic filter etc....

Talking

I would go with an alpine mrv 1507, it puts out 1500 watts
max and 1000 continous.The reason being is if you ever upgrade you wont have to buy a new amp. You can just turn down the gain to the desired level but be careful not to blow them.You may think thats way to many watts but believe me you will always wanna change for better stuff, I went through about 8 systems before I found the perfect one.
