L5s or something else?

[West1 10+ year member]

I have a 2007 Frontier (the extended one with plenty of space in the back for the kids...). I want to put a pair of subs under the back seat and was thinking of some Solo Barics (mainly because the magnets are not as big and there is a nice clean sound).

I had a 13.5" W7 last year (in a diff car) and that will not fit and dont want to pay to make it fit so I sold it.

So, I have 2 Qs...

1st... what Amp do you reccom to put to either 2 L5s or 2 L7s (if I can get the L7s in a custom box then I will go L7s) under the back seat?

2nd... I have tried looking for Solo Baric sealed boxes and cant find any for my year and make. Does anyone know where I can find a Dual box? Or is it just going to have to be a custom box?

Thank You

you can make one for WAY cheaper than any one you can buy. I would look into some 8" woofers. possibly try and find some E8s.

If you are going into a tight space look into the round solobaric. I know Kicker says the squares can go into fairly small boxes but they wont sound good until you go up into the medium to large size boxes.

those RE 8s would work nicely for ya too.

And even then they dont have "good clean sound". My 12" l7's sounded like garbage compared to my 15" RE SE's.

Id suggest the 8" e8's as well.

I got a pair of 8" orion XTR3 PRO's that id let go cheap. Circa mid 90's.

Really? How many SQ world titles has the L7 won? 8 or 9?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

no kickers. get a better brand.

I would like to go JL or in that direction (Competition Woofers) but there is a tight space. The boxes I have seen for my truck have the speakers facing down and the depth for the magnet looks shallow.

This is one I seen but looks to shallow for good sounding 12" woofers.

E8s... never heard of them. I have tried googlein E8 car woofer, E8 car audio and I cant get nothing but home woofers... a lil help pls.

Any reccoms for a amp to push its potential?

Thanks for the feedback

I like that 10" box. Now to get a Sub that will have a nice hard hit that fits this box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

the kicker solo classics would be a good choice. They make them in 10" and 8"

E8 is a discontinued subwoofer made by Sundown Audio...there are a few floating around on this site all the time. JL is too expensive for the money. Look into RE subs.

solo classic 10" is too deep. If you can use that 10" box you need a woofer that is under 5" in depth
