The 06 L7's get nice reviews on the forum.

How much power do you have to work with, or is an amp to be determined after you pick out subs?

the hell with it i just bought one 06L712 for 190 bucks was that a cool deal and another ? those little ported boxes they sell at the shops is that good for an l7 or should i build my own

$190 for a 06 L7 sounds hot to me... U would probably be better off building your own box unless that shop makes custom boxes.

^^^Search the enclosure section....theres plenty of L7 builds there....Use 3/4 inch MDF....One sheet usually runs about 20 bucks...
