I have 2 Kicker 2003 L7s with a Fosgate 1001bd amp sounds good but the skeaker leads keep breaking! I bought the speakers used they had the same problem before Kicker replaced them so when i got them they were new. Do the new 2004 L7s with the new design have this same problem?

Do I need an receipt to send them in to kicker to have them replaced again?

this is exactly why I dislike the solobarics.
they all have this problem.. L5 and L7 series.
Your best bet is to buy totally different subs.

o and the reciept thing, call them first tell them your situation, kicker is very nice when it comes to customer service, they outta give you a RE # that you put on the box with your damaged subs and ship

yeah the guy im buying them from has the receipt kicker faxed him over a bill of lading and they are getting shipped off today. Kicker said for 60 bucks more each sub i can get shiny new L7s hope they dont have the same prob (i bet they do)

I must fully break the other one first..not a problem im guessing

2 brand new L7s and a 1001bd amp and 1 farad cap for 550...not bad?

I have the same problem with my CVR 12s. The cone pounds the speaker leads into the basket until they eventually wear down to the wire and break. Bad design I think. They put some pads on the cone side so the wires dont damage the cone but what about the wires getting damaged from the basket? Geez
