amp and box help

[bunkerking09 10+ year member]

so one of the local dealers was running a crazy deal on 10 L7's, so i bought 2 for less than the price of one

so in here lies the problem, i now have to buy a bigger amp cause mine sucks(boss 2500.1) and i have little room, so i need your guys "expertise".

the box i'm building is going to be a big as possible, cant get any bigger, its all the room i have in my truck. the dimensions will be W-30inch-H-11inch-D-8inch, do you guys this this will be a big enough box for two of them? i'm not sure how to calculate the airspace.

second, the subs are 2 ohms each, thats why i had to buy two, so do you think the new kicker zx1000.1 will be enough to power them? or will i need to step it up to a 1500.1?

the amp doen't have to be kicker, just in the 250-300 price range i guess

help is greatly appreciated

2 10s ported will not fit in the 1.5 cubes you have available. You could seal them up, but I don't know how well the L7s will sound in a sealed box.

Also, you may have another problem because I don't know how deep those woofers are, but 8" depth is possibly going to be a problem.

its not a cube, and its not ported, its a 4 sided box, the mounting depth is like 6 3/16 inches

th9ink i should just make it for one and sell the other? thats what i'm leaning towards....
