How much wattage do you want to run? If you're not trying to impress then 500-700 watts should be more than enough. Whatever impendance load the amp is rated at is what the impendance you will probably want to run at. For instance the zx750.1 you were looking at was rated at [email protected] ohms or 750 @ 2. To run at 2 ohms you will need some combination of voice coils either wired in series or parallel to give you that resistnace.
It is my personal opinion to stay away from kicker. I think there is better budget stuff out there.

I would go with some lower end JL Audio subs...maybe some w0's...they are nice subs, fairly cheap on ebay. 2 12's would be nice. but for $100 a sub, umm...thats tough...maybe some Rockford Fosgates...just an opinion. good luck
