i think thats that bullshit... id get the W7 no matter what... honestly i think youd have the L5s in SPL too... if done right that 13w7 with that amp could hit around 146-147 sealed.

in all honesty, the 15 would obliterate the jl in spl, but in sq vise versa

man i just dont see anything really in kicker... ive heard L7s and crap... they just dont impress me like they do other people... i think if you hit 146 with 2 L5s your doing quite good... and i know that the w7 can do that... there was some1 on here b4 that had a 13w7 hit 151 ported at 34 hz... thats not a very high tune... so thats damn good

yea but that was with 2000 watts rms to it, and i bet if i had the money i could make 2 15 l5s hit well over 150

Im selling my L7 in the Ported Kicker Box. It came together direct from Kicker.

Or trading. I want more SQ in my subs. My SPL days are done. The L7 is brand new still in the ported box, and that is still sealed in a Kicker Cardboard box. If any of that made sense. I wanna trade it for something in mint condition, doesnt need a box.

alpine its the L5's BUT even the L5's would kill it in spl.. it had like 3 or 4 times more surface area than the w7's... plus the L5's ported.

actually the w7 only had a 1000/1 to it not 2000 watts... and it seems that kicker subs have to be done just right to get their peak output whereas other speakers can adjust a little bit. a kid at my school has 2 12 inch L7s in a ported box that some shop made him wiuth a kx1200.1.... i didnt think it was great at all... my brotehr had them in a mdf/fiberglass really sturdy SEALED box and it was quite a bit louder.... but the box was perfect.... idk why i just personally hate L7s and L5s... id rather have CVRs because they need less to get going and are more impressive to me... also better SQ... and sooo cheap

actually jon, and trevor, the l5s OR the l7s, but for the sake of this thread, the l5s, your both wrong, if done right, in a portedenclosure for either of these setups, the l5s would win NO CONTEST ok, and the w7 woudl get eaten in spl, not sq

I am gonna have to agree with trevor on this one, with the amount of power given the w7 would be louder and sound better then te l5's, L7's are a different story but the L5's dont even stand a chance against the 13w7 with a 1000/1 to it!
