Alright well i'm going to be doing my first sub install in a few months. I still am not 100% sure on some stuff.

First of all, I am going with kicker CVR subs. Originally, I was going to go with 12", but recently, I am not sure if I should switch to 10". I also have picked out an enclosure for my truck. (2002 chevy silverado ext. cab)

Ok so here is a list of my questions. Try to answer the ones you know.

If I go with 2 12" 800W subs, do I get 4ohm or 2ohm?

How big of an amp should I get to power these? I was thinking 500w?

In my truck, I have a Optima "6 pack" style battery. Its expensive and good quality. So would I still need a separate car battery for this?

Do I need a capacitor?

Do I need a new alternator?

Wiring suggestions?

Ok so thats about all the questions I have, thanks for helping me out.
