what is your budget?
can you design/build your own enclosures?
are you restricted to specific brands?
what is your overall goal with the sound of your bass?

yeah, i have the zx750 and a single 15" cvr. one 15" is more surface area than two 10" subs.

I would go withtwo Dual 2ohm Comp VR 12"s...You have plenty of power to push them, they do get loud in the right enclosure, and still maintain some decent sound quality in the process...Plus, you can pick them up for a little under $150 each...

Any particular reason you are wanting 10"s and not 12"s or 15"s? Is Space an issue?

so you think that zx 750.1 will push 2 comp vrs in a ported box from kicker

IMO I would get 1 good sub as opposed to 2 low end

maybe 1 phat 12 sealed to retain a little sq.....just imo on a limited budget....

I wouldnt reccomend wasting your money on a kicker prefab box. Especially not a prefab ported box. Buy the subs by themselves and build your own enclosure. Its not very hard and only costs about $50 in materials...

i agree the prefabbed just is not the best quality for the subs and eay over priced, definately build your own
