How about 2400W rms @ 2 ohm and a wireless sub level control? http://www.kicker.com/kxa24001-2400-watt-mono-amplifier

Using 2013 KX2400.1 retail price, it comes out to $.46 p/watt rms. For comparison, the xm20.1 is about $.38 p/watt rms. So very close.
The amp is 1 ohm stable, which allows for the flexibility to bolt up to an existing woofer setup that might be 1 ohm. However, its rms is based on 2 ohm, which is its ideal operating impedance. If you look close, Kicker states that you may see a 10% +/- rms @ 1 ohm This because they built it to safely run a 1 ohm load, but designed its power output for a 2 ohm load.

I wasn't knocking it, I've had great luck with Kicker products in our boats
I've just never seen matched output ratings and varying loads.
That said, I'm not a stereo guru like you guys, lol2013 Outback V

I did some 'guess' measuring last night. and assuming what I could get based on not really remembering what obstacles would exist once I removed the foot rest, I'm thinking I'd have up to 4 cuft. That said, if I ever did it, I'd likely stick with a sealed because it'd be harder for me to screw it up and a lot easier to build.
Looks like a killer amp.
My options honestly on power would be to keep my existing PPI P1000.1 and get a second one and have each amp going to an L7. Or I could sell off the PPI P1000.1 and power both L7's with an Exile 20.1
I am leaning towards the Exile. I'm friends with Brian and could likely get a price hookup from him that would make the kicker prohibitively expensive. If the choice was a pair of PPI 1000.1 amps or a single Exile 20.1, What would you choose?2008 Moomba Mobius XLV. Monster Cargo Bimini, WS Rev 410's, Polk Cabins, 3 Infinity Subs, PPI amps, WS420, Exile BT, upgraded ballast pumps, up to 3,500+ pounds of ballast, Blue LED's...
1992 Supra Sunsport. **SOLD** 2k pounds ballast, Surf System, Blue LED's everywhere, decent audio system.

I have seen this approach a lot. There are varying degrees of regulation among amplifiers. The ability to accept a 1-ohm load can add another product application in offering more versatility in subwoofer combinations. So it would be easy enough to decrease the supply voltage when terminating into a 1-ohm load and keep the amplifier in a safe mode. This would provide better thermal stability. True, no additional power at 1-ohm versus 2-ohm, but with every amplifier the supply IS limited. A better scheme than perhaps losing 35% of the power at 2-ohms....and because when is 2400 watts not enough.

Volt Meters mounted behind the grille fabric, so they are kind of hidden unless you look at them straight on.
I might change this, can't decide if I like it or not.2013 Outback V

It's been a while, here's my 2017 Stereo Revamp...
I've never been super happy with the paint job that I gave my XM9s, and after 3 seasons they were showing some wear, so I scuffed them down and re-sprayed last night. So far they have come out much nicer than before

How do you attach the trim panel to the sub box? Are the subs screwed through the trim panel and into the sub box? If so, did u use a gasket or sealant between trim panel and sub box to make sure its sealed? Thanks!
