System upgrade

[2001f150 10+ year member]

So I have two Rockford Fosgate P3D412 powered by a Rockford P1000-1bd and I am looking at upgrading to two L7 15s and two hifonics Bxi1208d amps. So my question is this a good choice? I have never really had any personal experiences with DD or FI or some of the other companies that seem to be preferred on the forums. So should I go with the kickers or try something diffrent?

How you running 15's, wall? what?

i liked my l7's. got plenty loud but i was running near 2000rms to each. for the small price difference get the bxi1608D/bxi1606D. They can handle it, not to mention those amps are slightly overrated.

The 15's would be in a vented box. My truck is a super cab so I am going to take out my rear seats and make a false floor to level it all out. With the false floor I will have space to store the amps and have the box on the false floor. Reason I am not walling is I like to be able to look out my back window. And how bad are hifonics over rated? Is there a better amp that Icould buy for the money?

there good amps, cant really beat them for the $. Usually around couple hundred watts. Depending on what your paying for them the only thing i can think of that could compete price/power wise is the GP3000d-pro. Plenty extra power.

If you want it loud and low, get Incriminator Audio DP15's http://www.IncriminatorAudio.com , and get an Audiopipe ap30001d http://www.caraudiodeals.com .

Same money your wanting to spend and better equipment.

Ok I might just stick with the hifonics and go with the BXi1608D. Cause I have heard that they are pretty decent amps. Also this is a noob question but are there any major diffrences from year to year on the kicker woofers? I see that some woofers change cone colors from year to year, but is there any other diffrences?

not that i know of, i think the new 08 models have woven tinsels though.

Ok I didn't think they could change that much in a year. So besides going to a larger woofer will I notice a diffrence in quality of sound?
