I drive a 2000 Honda Civic Ex with a standard 70 amp alternator. I plan on buying an Optima yellow top battery and keep in mind which ever setup up I go with will be installed by a professional with the correct gauge wires, fuses, etc.
Here are the three set ups I'm looking at.
-Single 10" L7 (2 ohm, loaded enclosure, 600 RMS) with a Kicker CX 600.1 amp.
-Dual 10" CompR (2 ohm, loaded enclosure, 1200 RMS) with a Kicker CX 1200.1 amp.
-Dual 10" CompS (2 ohm, loaded enclosure, 600 RMS) with a Kicker CX 600.1 amp.
Here are my concerns with each one.
-Would a single 10" L7 hit as hard as the Dual CompR/S? (If yes, great! I save space!)
-Do you think my car could handle 1200 watts while still operating the rest of the vehicle efficiently with the Dual CompR on my standard Alternator? Or even 600 watts?
-How well would the Dual CompS stack up against the Single L7 in terms of quality, and how loud it would hit?
I'm really looking for educated answers, but all advice is greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
To sum it all up:
Can I do 1200 watts?
