Silver Member Username: LewassBloomfield Hills, MI USA Post Number: 144 Registered: Jan-06 | L7's are by far the loudest, not even close. But they do have trouble sounding musical in my opinion. If u mainly listen to main-stream rap like Lil John and whatever the hell else kids are calling music these days, then you'll be very happy with the L7. |

Silver Member Username: BradgmanGAlVeStoN, Tx Usa Post Number: 104 Registered: Jan-06 | Just curious? How is a L7 so loud with a small magnet, thin rubber, low wattage, and small air vent hole in the back? It weighs only 20lbs as a 12" and others like audiobahn weighing 30-35lbs but the L7 is super loud. Just curios as to why. Does the square make them sound like sh!t? Thanks |

Gold Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 1425 Registered: Sep-05 | yea anything square will sound like sh!t... L7 were designed to get loud, plus that square pushes more air I belive too. Magnet & weight has little to do with it. |

Silver Member Username: LewassBloomfield Hills, MI USA Post Number: 175 Registered: Jan-06 | They use the square design so they can put way more cone area on the same official size. Like a 12" L7 has way more cone area than any 12" round. It's basically a cheap parlor trick that gets it really loud, but sacrifices sound quality because its square. I do think kicker has done a good job considering how flawed the design is from an engineering standpoint though. |

Bronze Member Username: Shortyman513Post Number: 20 Registered: Feb-06 | ok, the L7's dont sound like shi.t, lol.. yes the magnets are a lil smaller than normal but the square design does not make it sound like shi.t.. .i have (2) 15" Kicker L7's (2006 model) and they are each hooked up to their own 1700 watt kenwood amp and these subs hit like crazy... and the square design doesnt really distort the sound quality at all either Lewass... mine sound excellent.. out of the 5 systems i have had this past year, i have to say that this is one of the best, and i have gone through Kenwood, MTX, JL Audio, etc... |

Silver Member Username: LewassBloomfield Hills, MI USA Post Number: 183 Registered: Jan-06 | I agree, they are the very definition of an SPL sub, and in that regard, they do have decent SQ. It's in the transients that they reveal their quirks. But nobody is doubting how fkn loud they get! haha |
