I was looking into this amp a while back because I wanted an amp that would put out 2400w rms at both 1 and 2 ohms so I would get more output after impedance rise. I reached out to kicker and got the same results. Yes, it's a great amp but it wouldn't work for my needs and my subs so I asked if they had any amps that were capable of doing what I wanted and sure enough, they did. The CXA1200.1T and the CXA1800.1T both put out rms at 1 and 2 ohms so I ended up going with 2 1200.1Ts and I couldn't be happier! Unless of course they make them 1200w rms at 4 ohms as well in the next gen 😝 would love to hear your thoughts Big D

Kicker doesn't get the love they deserve. Efficiency is absolutely crazy! Big D, you're such a lucky guy. I'd love to be able to test amps like this. Great work!

Kicker amps when tested were underrated by the factory since the day they came out. I heard it hundreds of times the amps performed higher than rated. Good to see they haven’t changed their ways, and you always get what you pay for. MTX were always good also, and the notorious original mtx “red” amp was an awesome unit, and stable at 1 ohm back around 1990.

Gave the video a thumbs up, here is another for kip! 👍 Thanks for supporting the KZread community.

Kicker is such an awesome company. I bought a broken kx1200.1 from eBay to fix and sell. Some components where burnt so bad. I decided to contact Kicker by email and was shocked at their service. They went above and beyond to give me the parts number and also recommended to upgrade some known bad parts. I decided to keep the amp because they gave me great service and I like how the amp bumps. I think it's been over 5 years and the amp still works great.

This is one of the coolest videos you have ever posted! Good on Kicker for contributing amazing products that I didn't know existed.

Absolutely loved the turnout on this amp. It's great to see old school companies still being true to the ratings and even underrating them. Like you said, it'd be great if we can go back to making them here again. Make 'em proud here in the USA. 🇺🇸 Great video BigD!!

Those KX amps have elite pedigree. That efficiency is thanks to a dc to dc boost converter. The Warhorse had that tech i believe. And since you're not changing current types, the heat sink doesn't need to be as big either. Couple that with excellent woofer cone control and you've got a winner every time.

Another thing to note people... these Kicker KXA amps have a DSP chip controlling the crossover functions and bass EQ etc. This is very useful as you do not have the audio signal traveling through the potentiometers on the control panel. The potentiometers are likely only sending a signal telling the digital DSP chip its settings. I love this idea as it will result in the best audio quality for your input/crossover section without having super fancy polypropylene capacitors and burr brown op amps, all that stuff. And then the power output and efficiency is even cooler.. i bought a KXA1200 after seeing this. Its amazing!!

Here you are DEFENDING their choice in SLAVE LABOR, then try to justify it because another company does it. 👌👍 I'll pay a good price for AMERICAN MADE, not CHINESE. Hell, I'll even buy a Brazilian amp before Chinese.

Man, I just wanted to say thank you for all the time and effort you take to bring us this info. I have you to thank for the system I currently have. You bring truth to light, whether we like it or not. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Awesome channel bruh.

I make these videos because it’s my passion. I greatly appreciate you guys watching and the icing on the cake is when my vids are more than just entertainment 👍

Love kicker, me and my cousin passed the same pair of og kicker 12"s around for years, in different cars, amps, house amps, never a failure...

Who would spend this kinda money on Chinese boards??? Definitely not this guy. Serial number is on a sticker lmao. I will keep my wolfram 7500.1 which puts this thing to shame.

Nice to see a manufacturer like kicker not only backing their product but engaging at the consumer level.

I agree. It helps me to not have to buy everything and they know I will provide honest feedback. I guess we can see why, they knew these amps do what they say and more

As an owner and user of one of these, the only complaint I have is the 'Made in China'. Very efficent and clean design👍👍

Great video that amp is hitt'in it's been awhile since I seen a good amp like that keep bringing the videos Thanks!

Really happy with my l7 kicker 2 12in awesome purchased in 2008 still loud😊 great work kicker also great work thanks for the schooling so much to know 😊

Excellent Amp! I’ve been beating a G2 Dynamics 12” in Gately box and it’s totally insane! Killer combo!

That just looks so freakin awesome!!!

I’m a fan of both your channel and Kicker! TY! Subd..peace out..:) loved the FLIR!!

I've been looking for one of these 2400.1's for a couple years, awesome amps. I can't complain about the Sundown SFB-2000d I have though.

I'm not a big kicker fun, but this amplifier got my attention🤔 I'll keep a eye on this one for the future... thank you for the video...👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯

HELL OF A BEAST !!!!!!!. CONGRATS TO KICKER TO MEET AND EXCEED THEIR NUMBERS.

I'm glad to see kicker is still kicking 😂😂 I'm 45 and am old enough to remember back n the days if u had kicker you were the man

After watching this, now I understand why the KXA2400.1 runs my 4 Rockford Fosgate Power T1S1-12's so well (the most sub I could cram under - mostly - the rear seat of a 2020 F150 SuperCrew). I'm late to the video, but thank you for all the details and testing.

Def didnt expect that. Great amp
