i would do the 3 L5 10s more cone area, larger than 8" sub will have better lows. but the ohm load will be 1.33 ohms. but i guess with imp rise and box rise it should be over 2 ohms...unless u just do 4 10s and have a even 2 ohms.

if u was to do 4 u will need the D4 and the 3 its the D2

L7 12"

I love the 06 L7's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

only problem is with 4 10"s i wouldnt have enough power.

with that i would only be powering each sub 3/4 of the rms.

what is the resting load of that amp 1 0r 2?

 

[Louisiana_CRX 5,000+ posts]

I'm thinking 4 L5 8's would be pretty sweet.....

the lowest load i wouldput on it is 2ohms

it probably is 1 ohm stable but i dont want to push it.

im sure this pushes out more around 1650. as i have not seen one = or underated kicker amp to date/

No

2 l7 12s is a waste when each l7 can take 1200w easily

My bad bro, just woke up and I can't read

3 l5 10's would be pretty nice also....

just trying to make all the options so that it would be using the full potential of the amp.

1 l5 can take 500w so 3x500=1500 +like another 160 or so from the amp.

lol no problem was just saying.

if its 1 ohm stable i'd go with 3 subs and get it resting at 1.3.....you'd need 3 dual 2's....i did this with a SX 1250.1 on 3 DD 1012a's in a candy caddy...it was pretty sick...and never had amp probs at all......

When comparing 4 10L5's to 4 8L5's, that doesn't really matter. The simple fact that the quad of 10's will be more efficient means you will get more output with the same power... seems like a better option than running 3 10L5's at a higher impedance.
