Brent Scrivner Bronze Member Username: Brent113 Post Number: 16 Registered: Sep-07	Posted on Wednesday, September 19, 2007 - 17:18 GMT Well, let's see: The L7 handles 750W rms and has 225 in^2 (lw) surface area. The BL has 254 in^2 (pir^2) and handles 1000W. Based on that I'm going to say the BL will be louder
Troy Jones Silver Member Username: Tejcurrent Post Number: 561 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Wednesday, September 19, 2007 - 17:23 GMT depends on power and install, but the BL has more potential imo. I wouldn't give the BL less than 1500 watts rms.

It can take twice the power of the L7, has more cone area, and will sound a hell of a lot better while its getting loud. With that being said I would pick the BL.

loudblazer Silver Member Username: Loudblazer El reno, Ok Post Number: 229 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 03:23 GMT would the BL be better than 4 15 comps? (the cheap black ones)
cal payne Gold Member Username: Skibum12189 Cleveland Post Number: 1701 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 03:31 GMT do not pay 240 dollars for an L7, get a job for one month at circuit city, and theyre 80 dollars brand new for the 12"

Troy Jones Silver Member Username: Tejcurrent Post Number: 564 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 12:26 GMT ^Really I worked there just a few weeks, got some great discounts. Solo-x 18s for 450. 4 15s would have MUCH more cone area than 1 15 or 1 18, so chances are if they have the same power as you'd give the one they will be louder. I don't know how they'll sound..

Eddy DieZe Silver Member Username: Boomtank Rochester, NY USA Post Number: 352 Registered: Oct-06	Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 13:28 GMT and you have room for 4 15's? a nice 16cu^ft box would fit nice in an s10 blazer. The old comps did get loud sealed though. i had 2 15's in a 3cu^ft seald box in my jeep cherokee and they were pretty loud on 300 wrms.

Troy Jones Silver Member Username: Tejcurrent Post Number: 565 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 20:35 GMT Know someone there, put in an app. That's about it.
loudblazer Silver Member Username: Loudblazer El reno, Ok Post Number: 231 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Thursday, September 20, 2007 - 23:24 GMT i would have to have a sealed box if i got 4 15's. i dont really care about quality. i think some L7's sound good. thats just me, im dumb!
Troy Jones Silver Member Username: Tejcurrent Post Number: 567 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Friday, September 21, 2007 - 11:56 GMT If you're looking for loud they sound good enough They let me order only a week or so after I was hired (probably why I quite in like 2-3weeks) 4 L7s and 2 2500s wouldn't set you back much at all.
loudblazer Silver Member Username: Loudblazer El reno, Ok Post Number: 232 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Friday, September 21, 2007 - 14:58 GMT well i have school and live 30 miles away from there so i cant get a job there. maybe i can find someone who works there to help me out.
Troy Jones Silver Member Username: Tejcurrent Post Number: 572 Registered: Apr-07	Posted on Friday, September 21, 2007 - 19:24 GMT You could try- but not very likely. Maybe someone on this forum?
