yeah, i dont have the space for 2 solo x 18's. i will either go with 2 L715's or 4 L7 12's. i have narrowed down to either planet audio 2200, kx2500 kicker, or orion 2500d amps. any suggestions?

I just did a system in a Expedition. It was 2 L7 15s with 2kw off a XX-Hercules. It is crazy loud. The box is 10.8cu. ft and that leaves about 4.5 per woofer after port and sub displacement. Its got 60sq. inches of port per woofer and is tunned to about 34hz. I dont even want to imagine what the would sound like walled in a civic. Also, if you wanted more power then you can go with a XX-Collosus 2 for about 750 brand new and be pushing 3200W RMS to them. Altho the XX-Herc only cost 450. The amps you said are also nice. Guess it really depends on what you want to spend. Good luck

i also looked at the hifonics amps, but havent heard any of there new stuff. if they are pretty good i will look into them. thanks for replies. i will order 2 L7 15's this week. i will have to have a box built in car. i dont have equipment to work with or place to do it. so about 11 or 12 cubic feet would be good for both subs? thanks
