I'm just now getting back into the car audio field after 8 years. What's some good setups out there right now? Also, is kicker L7 12's over rated?

how much are you willing to spend?

do you want insanely loud, clean, or little of both?

what type of a car is this going in to?

remember, if you want powerful system, you gotta have the charging system. you might want to check the accessories section cause nate from www.excessiveamperage.com is having a group buy.

I'm thinking about 2000.00 to 2500.00. I would say a little of both. I have a 2002 Explorer.

I'm not quite sure what is actually good out there any more. I hear kicker is good. There are so many companys out there now.

I was thinking about 2 12" Kicker L7's with a 1250.1 amp. Now the 1 stands for one ohm how does that operate with 2 4 ohm subs?

250a alt 300
all wiring 200
box 50 (building your own)
sub options
2 arsenal 15s 420
2 arsenal 12s 320
2 treo tsx 15s 600
2 RE SE 15s 400
2 SI mag 12s 900? idk price
you know what... id be liting about 10 other sub options... i need more detaisl of your wants and needs lol..

how loud do you want?
cant breathe loud
little ear pain
lots of ear pain
just before ear pain (i consider this not loud at all)

how much power would you like to use?
be aware yoru going to need a charging system to power it. the more power the more money goes into your charging system. i think a great loud and good sounding system can be done with 1000w to the subs and appx 300-500w to the speakers. and that wont hurt you too much. a 200a alt should do you fine with that system. also note that a great system can be done with only 500-1000 w as well as 3000w if you really want to. but again im not sure exactly what you want...

i keep hearing about arsenal subs. Who makes them and where can I find them. I wouldn't mind a loud system kind of breath takeing, with a little ear pain mixed.

and then with the 2 comp vx's subs, get a new kicker zx1500.1 amp and wire the subs to one ohm. This would get real loud, and sound very nice.

i would wait to see how much they will sell on ebay for. right now there isnt any on ebay, and you can get them for like 5-600.
