Assuming that your L7 12s are the Dual 4 Ohm version and you could drop the sub channel to a 1 Ohm load.....and further assuming it's under-rated by a factor of 25% giving 1,000w @ 1 Ohm for the sake of argument....

That would feed 500w to each 12" L7.

Will that work?

Yep.

Will it make those Solobarics give all that they can give?

No.

The L7 12 can take more than just a little bit above 500w worth of clean signal all day long. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

But as far as just looking at the amp for the same of amps?

Yes, it's a durn nice unit. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

ok thanks. i didnt buy the amp yet but i was thinking about it. is there another amp u recommend that can power the subs and speakers that would be better but not really expensive?

Not too many 5channel amps with that much power to the subs. Memphis Big Belle is another one I can think of. You might have more choices if you look into a separate 4ch amp and sub amp.

If you do seperate amps for the price check out the cadence site under there outlet. You can run a TXA-3004 or 6004 and a TXA-1000D for about $380 or less but they are going to take up more space than just running a 5 channel. The 25TL RF is a very good amp and under rater some power wise. For the price they are good deal.IMO
