Those are their bottom line of sub and are not very good. I would try to find 1 swr 15 if thats the type of bass you want. now for the L7 I dont like those subs at all and dont recomend them brand new, especially refurbished. Refurbished means they have been abused by someone else and then they fixed the only part that was broken so all the other parts are still abused. I would look into Image Dynamics,Ascendant audio(atlas),or the Alpine type R. I would go with 1 15 if I were you not 2-12's that way you can get a little better speaker for the money. |

Bronze Member Username: Jarryd2018Post Number: 80 Registered: Sep-04 | dont go to sonicelectronix. i tried to order subs from them and they really messed up the order then kept lying to me about it and wouldnt send me the right stuff so i had to get my money back and send the subs back. i ended up getting alpine type Es off crutchfield for cheap. |
