Default Head unit/Amp question...

I have a regular cab '99 F150. I currently have 2 Kicker CVR Dual 2 Ohm 12"s I'm getting ready to put in (400 RMS/800 Peak).

I'm looking at a couple different amps, but just wanted to see what ya'll had in mind. Don't want to spend a fortune...

Also, I'd like to get a 7" flip screen in the near future. Not sure which ones are better than any others....

Thanks guys.

ok well you will need an amp that does 800 rms at 2 ohms, kicker amps are all rated at 2 ohms and are even underated..they are a bit pricey tho, just remember you get what you pay for..i.e. pyle/lanzar etc are NOT GOOD BRANDS


when getting a deck you can get virutally any one you want when running amps, it comes down to quality of the screen and features because you can run a line imput voltage regulator that will take your voltage from 2 volts from a cheap deck to 6-8 which means better sound
