The BL would have flatwind and cooling. both choices would be ran by kicker1500.1 and both would be ported. 12"

if you want pure SPL, l7s would be the way to go much to my dismay but go for it...2 l7s will be louder than 1 BL off same power

2 12" L7s vs 1 15" BL off same power...i would tend to guess that the L7 is louder...now i dont know this for a fact of course...if it were me, id go BL all the way cause i hate kicker subs but w/e

for the price not much can beat L7's spl wise, although i would get a BL just cause the build quality has to be A LOT better.

hmm...i had kicker and it gotten stolen...i personally advise u to stay away from it lol....i really didnt like the sub...it would get loud but there is sooo much better
im actually happy that it was stolen so i can get myself a 15"BL or somethin (and hopefully become a 15" wanger ^^)


do u have an option to get 2 BL's instead of 2 L7's? btw how much are u gettin the l7's for?

I hate to break it to you Fi nut huggers but...2 L7s would kill 1 of those subs in output(SPL). Cone area wins 9/10 times....

"Definition: the "Big Three" upgrade means improving the current capacity of three cables: 1) alternator positive to battery positive, 2) battery negative to chassis, and 3) engine ground to chassis. Some people replace the factory wiring; others add additional cables to the factory wiring. This instruction is to add cables to existing OEM wiring."

We are not talking about fukking pyramid or legacy, We are talking about L7s and a BL. In THIS situation the L7s will get louder..point blank period. End of discussion.

why do u guys hate kicker subs?

solo x's are beasts ... i doubt many of u have heard one thats why ur hating on them .. powered and enclosed properly will beat alot of woofers ... and they can be had for under 350 ... and will defintely come close to a btl in spl output

l7s - hands down best spl su
b for the money ... build quality isnt great sure ... but if someone wants an spl setup on a budget ... wheres the problem? ohh for all of u that say they sound terrible ... they really are that bad. . plus sq is subjective to the ear ne ways

cvxs - are solid sql woofers .. nothing more nothing less ... can be had for under a 100 bucks ... ebay and used car audio sales

cvrs - are one of the best budget woofers out there ... under 50 dollars in some places. .. decent sq .. moderate spl ... build quality is solid

thanks ctmike...

and mike, i havent heard the solo X, yor right, but i never said anything bad about them...

honestly, i dont like kicker subs at all, imo they sound bad and i hate the look of them...just personal opinion. i have heard l7s and cvrs, didnt like either of them. sure the l7 got loud, no doubt, just dont like it. hate square subs...

To be honest, I dont give a flying f^ck if you guys care or dont like Kicker. You guys are ignorant.Go do your research on how many SQ awards the L7's have won. I'm done posting in this thread and arguing with you morons. kthxbi

kicker is just good SPL and bad SQ drivers. SPL has more public than SQL or SQ. That's like good cars, a lot of people wants ferrari, but a lot of them can't afford it. With subs, not all people want to spend 400$ per driver.

FI audio over kicker. Good box and SQL is right at the corner.
