the Solo Baric series i heard hits really hard, so i decided to get soem S8L7s
they are dual 4-ohm speakers with 450watts max.

im looking to get a profile amp because they have a nice warranty and are good amps from what i hear.

basically im curious what kind of power i want to run. there's KenWoods that i would get that put out 150X2 for thesame price as a profile putting 200X2

one profile does 200X2 @4 and 400 or 450X2 @2...i don't plan to blow em, but should i stay away from it for safety?

all opinions appreciated.

okay, this is where im confused again.

i checked the Kicker website and read through the manual for making boxes and such. Before the boxes part they said the speakers take 450RMS and something like 800max(different from their boxes)

so i was thinking around 400, but then in the boxes area it went on to comment on 325 for two kinds(one of which being a ported with fake seal-like wall) and the other being 300...

I already have my foot in the door ready to buy the Audiobahn amp with 200X2 or 800X1...

Also, what is MDF?

ummm, riight.
