Kicker Solo L7's

Seems like you've got your mind pretty much made up. We all have our opinions, but only one matters, MINE, just kidding.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Make sure you dig this post up and let everyone know how it sounds when its done. There are many who are debating the same thing as you, L5 vs. L7. Good luck.

whichever you choose make sure you dont put it in the small box. medium to large works best...and the l5 is more effiecent than the l7 so if amp power is in question get the l5

Bumbin Blazer,,

I just bought a s12l7 from kicker and a kx1200.1..

i dont have space in my car so i whent for 1 sub only..

As i want mostly spl,,have i made a good choice???

Do you think this amp is too much for the sub(my car is 12.8volts)

In the amp test,,the wattage rms output is rated at 1540 watts rms(continuous)(14.4 volts)1350 rms 13.6 volts)1200 rms 12.8 volts)

The test is a piece of sheet that came with the amp..

In most cases the amp much less than it really says..

In my opinion the jbl amp is not as good as the kicker amp..

The kicker has to be at least 2 times better(i dont think the jbl can put out even 700 rms..)

Kicker amp is good..

and i bought it because i need to shake my car with only one sub(thats why i overpowered my sub(because i want to have big headhoorm)

Thanks and hope someone help suggestions

As i am in doubt which component set to mix up with my boston pro6.5

I have a kicker kx.2 to power my Speakers too

yep yep. those JBL's will push out good watts. they are closer to 1200 then that kicker is though, the kicker will pump out more watts but is it worth the amount of price difference.

keep it thumpin,

the amount of power (even 300 watts) is an in audable difference at that power. would be less than a db (more like .5db) and even if you had super hearing no diff

roop, the amplifier is just as or even more important then the sub, your willing to spend 400 or so on woofers but you dont want to spend any money on amps, thats dumb, also i think the l7's and l5's are crap for there price, the only reason there so big is there square, you could get some dd's for the same price and dds could tear up l7's or l5's, but this is my opinion im not an expert.......oh and 15's having alot worse sq is crap.

15's dont sound like crap, if you run them wrong then they do...as with anything. i heard the dd sq demo civic before..not impressed to say the least..make aloud woofer but thats about it you put them in their sq boxxes they are even too mellow for my liking.
