1,325 watts @ 2ohm bridged. If you have a dual 4 ohm voice coil sub, that is alot of power for that sub. A dual 2 ohm sub wired to 4 ohm would around 600 watts.

The C2k series are outstanding, top SQ amps. Good choice but pretty pricey.

It depends how much bass you want. Another 10" and then run them at a 2 ohm bridged final load with around 600 watts per sub would provide plenty of bass.

zapco makes one of the best amps. Especially the c2k series. first off it you dnt want to go Crazy bass then you don't want this amp. Way too much $$ ( unless you don;t care) for something that isn't going to pound. and I MEAN pound. All of their amps are WAY underrated also.. You might want to go with a 3.0 or something like that and run it 2ohm....

If you are looking for something for a 10" sub then go with something from JL still pretty decent stuff for about 1/3 the price.

Again unless money is no object... if it is NOT then get the zapco and it will never get hot and run perfectly.. You can always gain it down.

One addage (sp?) to always live by with car audio... You can never have too much power.

Uncleb,

Not basically THEY ARE competition amps.

Add another 2 10's to that mix and maybe they wont blow with all that power.

I think the 2 ten's would be great. The new L7 is rated for 600 watts RMS so, I think the amp would be just about right. A nice custom box would be sweet. A properly designed ported box would pound like mad crazy.
