Pioneer amp with 2 x 12" kicker subs

[juzzyx]

Will a Pioneer GM-D8500 (600rms) mono block amp run a Kicker 10DC122 2 x 12" Subs (2 x 300rms)?

yeahh why wouldnt it, just be careful with the volume and set the gains right coz them subs are rated 150rms each, the most i have given one is 200rms and they hit pretty hard, so yeah the answer to ur question is yes, just know what your doing

[somefool]

yep. wire subs in parallel

The subs are already factory boxed. they run at 2 ohm. I also meant 300 rms each lol (300 + 300) will it be enough to power it?

i looked up the amp and it said

600 Watts x 1, at 2 ohms

so it should all be fine

and its 300 watts @ 4ohm..

300rms each is more than enough power

its better to have more than not enough

Sweet as mate thanks for the advise. Do you reckon its worth installing a second battery?

umm, get a cap, i installed a second bat/cap wen i got 1200rms, but with 500rms i just used a 2 fared cap and my amp was 58% efficency class a/b and that pioneer amp is class d so you wouldnt need a second bat, but at least get a cap, it really does help! plus you probably wouldnt be using the amp's full power on them subs
