lol SUV doesn't mean higher numbers.

same sub, same box, same amp in my montero was like 143 no problem.

the rover has a wierd as hell shape, lots of space and more CU feet of air in it. takes more to get louder man.

kicker ftl...

my TC 15" Uber does 140 all day long on 1000 watts rms.

Kicker FTW dumby,How u gonna talk shit about kicker with a score that low.

so much crap talking, he is asking for help, not to tell him his stuff = trash, while what every you happen to run = god mode.

Kicker L7's are great subs and can make ALOT of bass (for SQ or SPL depending on how you make your box)

you said you got a 3.6 cube box now. That said 3.6 to two subs is only 1.8 to each sub, before you subtract your woofer volume. Not good for SPL.

I agree with most the other people here who say just build your own box. Do some research, learn how to build your own box. you will get alot louder then you are now, and feel good about having built it yourself.

With the dimensions you said you have (35Wx14Hx22D) you have a total volume of 6.24 cubic feet. (L x W x H / 1728 = cubic feet) thats plenty of room to work with for 2 12' subs

with what people were talking about the tuning. Its not set in stone but usually people go for like 27-31 Hz for like a SQ setup (a flatter response,) the 31-35 range is probably good for what you want (daily driver good spl,) and usually you see things tunes at 35+ Hz going for spl, they get a much sharper curve and give you a "boomy" sound. not so great at the low lows (that you will want for the rap you listen too) but a higher output at certain frequencies

l7's ****, i had 2 L7's and a single juggernaut with a sundown1500 knocked them clean out of the ballpark

Sounds like you had a terrible install for your L7s. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/redface.gif.62fdbfe1a101588a808c4cff71bcb942.gif

thanks for the info i really appreciate that...do you think 6 cubes will be too much? tuned to like 34 hz?

I got 1 12" l7 with 1000w RMS in about 3.5 cubes and a pretty good sized port (can remember dimensions off top of head. Sounds great, drops real low

This was before I touched up the cloth and installed the sub, but you get the idea.

I just think that you don't know how to get them loud.

*Looks at sig*

Like a lot of other people have said, go with one 12" or 15". Easier to work with your trunk, cubic feet wise when you have one sub. Look at like a DD. Resident DD experts what would be smart?

i think im goin to build a 4.0 CU box tuned to like 34hz and see how that goes....does anyone think if i put just 1 L7 in a 3.0Cu box will it be louder then both?
