Amp Kit??? I have two rockford fosgate 10 inch subs and an 1100 watt amp. So my question is, what kind of wire will i need to hook everything up? Im not sure if i need to buy an amp kit that has total power of 1100 watts or if i can buy any speaker wire.
You can get 2 ga power wire and a grounding block and get some 10 ga speaker wire or 8 ga and cut to length (leave a little play to move enclosure a bit) also get power fuse block for battery location..

Yes they information available on them they are still around. You will need a class-D 300 watt RMS amp to run them at perfect power if i remember right they are 150 watt RMS,, 450 watt max per sub.// just never mind the max it means nothing. They are a 4 ohm sub i believe so you would want to get a 1 ohm stable amp. two 4 ohm subs can be run at 1 ohm wired in series. they are actually made by audio vox corp.to wire them is easy ill give a link to do so easy to use. and handy. let me look for some info on your sub...? Yes there is info out there here is another link. Need additional help give a shout. Rockford Fosgate Woofer WiringWizardJENSEN XS1010 Specs
dual voice coil subs hook up mono on amp, from amp - from right side + from left side of amp run to sub n then jumper wires from one side of sub to the other side goes negative jumps on positive and positive jumps on negative
You can't go wrong with Rockford, in my opinion. Everything they make is well built and high quality. I personally have two Rockford p500-1bd amps hooked up to four 12 inch subs in my car and those amps make those subs slam. I have them wired down to 1 ohm and the specs say that they should be pushing 500 rms a piece at 1 ohm so that p700-1bd amp really packs a punch. Depending on what you're hooking up to that amp I would defenitely recommend it to you. - Ryan in Alaska
You need:
1) 2 4-ohm subs
2) Appropriate enclosure
3) Amp wiring kit with RCA's
Connect each sub to a separate channel and set both mode switches to "MONO" (center position). In 2-channel mode, this amp is only rated at 80 Watts RMS, so you need relatively small and efficient subs. I'd say nothing bigger than 8" or perhaps 10". Rockford-Fosgate P1S48 (8") and R1S410 (10") will work OK with 50-150 watts RMS. Some others will also.
Remove the load from the amplifier (subs) and the RCAs
Retry.
If the light stays on, there are internal problems with the amplifier, and it needs to be serviced.
If the amplifier works normally, attach the RCA's and power on again.
If it remains on, connect one sub, and then the other.
Your amplifier is a 2 channel amplifier rated at
60 Watt - 4 Ohm - 2 channel(s) 125 Watt - 2 Ohm - 2 channel(s) 250 Watt - 4 Ohm - 1 channel(s)
Your amplifier is not rated for a 2 ohm mono load. If you have Single voicecoil subs wired in parallel, you have a 2 ohm mono load - your amplifier will eventually fail.
hows it going so you need it to be installed or you can install this yourself? well the best bet fund to get stuff done cheap is t get the stuf you will need to do an install like a install wiring kit and tools and post a installer help on craigslist.org iin your local area would be the cheapest way or just go to your local audio stereo shop thanks again and i hoope this help have any more questions please feel free to contact me if you need a step by step install i can help you in that and save you big bucks thanks again. always forward jcbproducts
