I hooked up two Kicker KX600.1 amps to my lil' car, and the lights dont dim too badly on full wack,, and for normal listening it's fine. I don't care about listening with the engine off, the effort and funds I'd have to put in to listen with it off ain't worth it for me.
I have standard BIG 3, what gauge do you guys recommend, 1/0?? Could I get away with 4 gauge? How easy is it to do? Is it just a matter of locating the standard cables, replacing them and fitting bigger ring terminals??
...So anyway 1200wrms is my limit really. I do like the Hifonics bxi1206d, cheap price and Bill rates them better than the older Hifonics stuff. Autotek is too rare. So I'll wait for a decent bxi 2nd hand on eBay (cheapskate I am :P).
The big3 only needs to be done in 4gauge, dont worry about spending the money for 1/0. Basically, you just need to locate the wires and it should be hard. And when you do it, keep the factory wires in there and add the 4gauge.

And yes, these past few years of Hifonics stuff has been really good. Very reliable amps that will do their rated power.

Why would you get flamed? I've been looking at a 1200x1@1ohm amp and thats one that has caught my eye a few times over.
