If you plan on having a 3000 watt amp to power those icons you are going to need more than just a kinetic battery. Also, if you are on a $350 budget you arent going to get a good amp in that price range.

January 17, 201015 yr Would the aq2200 be good for those 3 woofers?Yep and it is in your budget, do the Big 3 get a good sized battery 100AH or better and a voltmeter. Depending on your voltage and stock alternator you may need a HO Alternator.

January 17, 201015 yr Author thanks jaycee my stock alt is 160 amp,it sucks cause my battery is in my trunk so alot of wire for the big 3.
January 17, 201015 yr thanks jaycee my stock alt is 160 amp,it sucks cause my battery is in my trunk so alot of wire for the big 3.Well you should be good on the HO alternator, yeah I feel your pain my main battery is in my trunk too but since it came with factory 4 gauge wire and Im not upgrading my alt anytime soon I left it along for now (but I did the other two wire). Yeah well at least the run to the second battery will be short as hell, you gotta compromise in car audio.
January 17, 201015 yr thanks jaycee my stock alt is 160 amp,it sucks cause my battery is in my trunk so alot of wire for the big 3.You actually will have to run the same amount of wire. One positive run from alternator to battery, and one ground from battery to frame, one ground from frame to engine. Put your second battery in the rear and wire them together.
January 17, 201015 yr Admin Due to your budget, see if DB-r has something like a 1500D or 2000D from sundown.
January 17, 201015 yr thanks jaycee my stock alt is 160 amp,it sucks cause my battery is in my trunk so alot of wire for the big 3.Sounds like you've got an LX vehicle (Magnum, Charger, 300). If it's 160A, I'm guessing Magnum R/T. SAZ-1500d or 2000d would be just fine. You don't need to send the full 1000watts to a sub whose RMS is 1000watts to get good output out of it. If you had a 500HP car, you're not gonna floor it everywhere you go. Besides, if you go with a larger vented enclosure the power handling reduces slightly anyways...
January 19, 201015 yr A 2000 D on 3 10" Icons : that should sound really good !!! You're so lucky to have such a nice stock alt !!!What do you run for front speakers with so much bass ?!!
