1 18" solo x, or 3 15" L7's???

I say the 3 15 L7's. Solo X will get loud, but it doesnt have magic dust that will make it louder.
HMMMM

45 inches of cone > 18 inches of cone.

Thats a no-brainer

I know that but will they be as reliable as a Solo X? I dont have much room though to add another L7. The box was made custom for my car to fit both of my L7s and it takes up the whole trunk.

**** nevermind. I just found the recommend box dimensions for a ported 18" solox and kicker recommends 10 cubic ft for one 18" Solo X to run as a good ported box for an SUV if your looking for deep bass. I got max 8 cubic ft to work with and im not even going to power the solo x no where near its recommended rms. Got to look back to the L7s...

Looking at 4 12" L7s, 3 15" L7s, or sticking to two 15"s...I could probably make a good enclosure to fit 4 12"s the minimum recommend dimension for a ported box for a 12" L7 is I think 1.8cft so Ill either stick with my 7.8cft box that I have right now or make an 8cubic ft box and give them each 2ft and run them with the orion 2500 @.5ohm

Im looking for more SPL than SQ but also to use as a daily driver. I think two 15"s will be louder than 4 12"s. I just want to add another third L7 if I stick to the 15"s so I wont have to worry too much to them blowing

I was about to question you about the space available for those L7's and the Solo X. The Solo X requires some massive volume. Get the third 15, just make sure when you wire it, the amp can handle it.

Shit that solo x is crazy! 10cubic ft, I thought 7.8cubic ft would be fine but **** nvm. I guess I will get another L7 (15"), run them @ .5ohm, and upgrade my electrical system.

3 15's will still be louder than 1 18

solo x gets my vote, one of those ported will do wonders if done right.......

I would get the SOLO X but cant afford to use that much space for a box.

4 12's would be awesome. two 15's next up. 3 15's wouldnt be cool because you'd get a funky ohm load. 1.33 ohms would set you back down to around 2000 watts... although im sure the difference in SPL would be negligable (sp?).

You are still going to push the 3 15's with 1.33 ohm. The wattage wont change for each driver.

No. 3 15" L7s DVC 4 will give me a 0.67 Ohm load.

What about if I run the Solo X with a Orion 2500 amp and add another amp like an Orion 1200?

youre an idiot
