hahah..no im not planning on giving them 1500 each. im putting each at 1000rms.if they dont like it..well they can go to hell.

The subs will take 3k daily.Whats ur electrical system like?

2 15L7's >>>>>> 1 MT 18! and they will be absolutely fine with 2200w rms, don't let any idiot tell you different.

I have had two mt 15s and have heard two 12 l7's...

I would assume the l7's but cannot say I have heard them both.

if you haven't picked up the subs yet i would get dual 2's so you can wire the amp at 2 ohms... it'll be more efficient at 2 and you don't need the increased output that you would get from wiring at 1 ohm anyway. If anything i'd wire it at 4 before 1.

don't you have to get a dual 4 to run at 2 ohms?

yea... i would pretty much set the gains so that your not killing your electrical...or the amp. Keep a close eye on voltage.

L7s for sure...

They have no problem getting loud off of 900 watts a piece...

1 dual 4 would wire to 2 ohms...but 2 dual 2's would wire to 2 ohms as well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

power handling my 2 l5 12's were ran off an orion 2500d over double rms and was loud

Done right, you should easily be in the high 140's..If not near a 150.
