Bronze Member Username: Hear_dat_bass08Novlety, Ohio United States Post Number: 14 Registered: Mar-07 | well im looking for a system and i only want one sub and a box i already have an amp and a HU and all the wires are already ran i just that bump in the trunk. The amp i am running is a Hifonics 600 watt 2channel amp and i have a Sony HU. i want pure loud bass. i used to have a Fi SSD 12inch in a sealed box but it wasnt loud enough so i sold it and some other stuff so i have about 270 in cash. i was looking at a Kicker L7 in a ported box the reason why i am looking at a L7 or L5 is because there pure SPL subwoofers. any other ideas or comments are welcome. thanks.. |

Gold Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 2505 Registered: Mar-06 | Agreed, If your looking at a 12" L7, you want to feed it about 1000 watts rms. Its hard to beat a L7 in SPL for the Money. Not many subs will hit as hard for $150 or so. But remember L7 are lacking in the SQ area. |

Gold Member Username: JblanfordPost Number: 1239 Registered: Oct-06 | oh sh!t...you don't have the ssd anymore reading > me |
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleTeam RevolutionImortal Box ... Post Number: 7842 Registered: Feb-06 | Yea, That SSD would be a hell of a lot louder in a ported box. |
Silver Member Username: SheriffPost Number: 449 Registered: Jan-07 | Have someone on here build you a box. I could build you one if you want, I just started building them so it won't cost you much. |
Bronze Member Username: Hear_dat_bass08Novlety, Ohio United States Post Number: 20 Registered: Mar-07 | ok but what would be louder the SSD or a L7 in a ported box cause i mean no matter what i will be running 600 watts to the sub |
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleTeam RevolutionImortal Box ... Post Number: 7845 Registered: Feb-06 | It would be pretty close but the L7 would prolly be louder. But its all in the box. |

Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 902 Registered: Jan-07 | i just built a big ported box for my L5 12's and my windows flex like sh!t, barely fit the box in, ad its a huge trunk, 85 olds cutlass lol its at LEAST 2 or 3 times louder than my sealed |
Bronze Member Username: Hear_dat_bass08Novlety, Ohio United States Post Number: 21 Registered: Mar-07 | well im think im buying the L7 tonight and i was wondering u think i should sell my amp and get a Kicker ZX750.1 or keep my Hifonics 600.1. im really thinking about the kicker but i dont have alot of room in my car. its a 05 saturn ion |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 4595 Registered: Feb-06 | kicker amp is better than the hifonics in everyway. but why kicker subs?? if you have to go kicker at least get a cvx. still can't believe you got rid of an fi for a kicker sub. |
Bronze Member Username: Hear_dat_bass08Novlety, Ohio United States Post Number: 22 Registered: Mar-07 | the reason why i got rid of the Fi is becuase it wasnt that loud and idk i guess im a fan of kicker hate me if u want but im pretty sure its my system its up to me on what i want to hear. but thanks everyone for ur help and advice. |
Bronze Member Username: CriedErie, PA US Post Number: 91 Registered: Jun-07 | lol dont get sh!tty, i got rid of my kickers for a reason, and have the type r's and i absolutly love them. I wouldn't go back to kicker if you paid me now that i've heard my type r's. They will get very loud and sound great while doing so. Im not sure that many can say the same for the L7. Square subs FTL! |
