Message:
I am about to purchase 2 Kicker Solobaric 10L7's I don't know much about like the 2 ohms and 4ohms thing so which one should I choose and also I am needing an amp to push both subs I am not worried about the price I just want my subs to kick as* so I am wondering if the Kicker KX1200.1 would do that for me or do I need to go with something else? I am kinda wantin to stay with Kicker Amps so if you would help me out and tell me if that would make my subs BOOM or what Kicker Amp I should go with? Would I need a sealed or ported box for these subs, they are going into a 2001 flareside shortbed f-150? I don't want to blow the speakers but I won't it to ROCK eveything!! I read something about the Kicker KX1200.1 Amp is stable at 1ohms and so I would need d2 subs or something like that what does that mean? lol What kinda damage are these subs capable of? Like can they shatter glass or are they not that powerful, what can they do? Oh yeah I was also wanting to ask after I find out what box i should put them in how should I face them like back towards the bed or front towards the seats or down if you are able to do that with the speakers and the little space I have because of my shortbed truck?

The KX1200.1 is a nice amp. Just keep in mind that it is very capable of blowing your subs. If you are careful, you will not have to worry about anything.
You will want to get the D4 (dual 4 ohm) Kicker 10L7's. Wire all voice coils in parallel. This means that you will want to run all the positive terminals (red) together and all the negative terminals (black) together. This will result in a one ohm load.
They will probably not shatter glass. It takes a LOT of sound pressure to do this.
I would put them in a ported box. Can you build it yourself? Make it according to Kicker's specs. Let me know if you want to make it a different size, etc.
You will have to experiment with the box placement to see what sounds best.
