HIRE AN ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR. If you're not an electrician and you're thinking you can put in a 1200 amp service yourself, you can't. If you need to ask how, you shouldn't even be thinking you can. This is a large job which needs to be completed by an electrical contractor. Period.

Depends on the size of the service. 100 amp service will require 3 gauge, 150 amp service will require 1/0 gauge, and 200 amp service will require 3/0 gauge.
A 200 amp service panel with a 60 amp sub-panel.
Yes, the wire size has to be increased. The existing 100 amp service will now probably have a #3 conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C which is rated for 100 and 105 amps respectively. Increasing to a 150 amp service will use a #1/0 wire size. If you are thinking of an upgrade, skip the 150 amp service and go to a 200 amp panel. New homes are installing 200 amp 42 circuit panels. The extra cost is only reflected in the materials as the labour costs will be the same regardless whether a 150 amp or a 200 amp panel is installed. The wire size for a 200 amp panel is #3/0. With an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C the rating is 200 or 210 amps respectively.
1200 Amps is a huge breaker. Typical houses might have between 100 and 200 Amp service. Since this would have to be a very unique installation you would have to provide a lot more information before cost could be computed. You also have to indicate who is supplying the breaker which would be a significant cost on its own.

It depends on the rms of the two cvrs combined. Also if the 1200 watt amp is 1200 watt rated (rms) or 1200 watt peak. Lets say the two kickers have an rms of 600 watt each, and the amp is 1200 watt rms, which it probably isnt but i'll pretend. This set up would work because 600 of the amps watts would be correctly matched with one sub, and the other 600 would go to the other sub.
yes it can
crutchfield has a wiring diagram for all kinds of configurations, check it out.
1200 Watt wiring is more than enough for an 800 Watt amp. The rating of the sub doesn't make any difference to the cables. If you want to use the sub to its rated power you should get a bigger amp. If the amp can only give out 800 Watts and the sub can take 1100 Watts then you can put a bigger amp on. It is still going to be loud as with an 800 Watt amp. I have a 300 watt amp with a 1200 Watt sub and people hear me coming.
Depends on the size of the service. 100 amp service will require 3 gauge, 150 amp service will require 1/0 gauge, and 200 amp service will require 3/0 gauge.
12 Amps x 12 volts = 1200 watts 1200 watts / by 120 volts = 10 amps at 120 volts Answer is 10 amp hours
The best way to hook up a single 12 inch dvc to a 1200 watt amp is to use an MTX thunder box.
Would be compared to 1200 watt amp
It's actually a good idea to have a speaker that can handle higher wattage than the amp can produce.
No, each size service needs its own meter base.
