Gold Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 2021 Registered: May-07 | the kx1500.1 is 2 ohm stable, i believe.. That would require a dual 4 or 1 ohm v.c. sub. |

Gold Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 2022 Registered: May-07 | Westlake HS Football FTW! They are a tuff team! My local favorite. If you ever feel like checking out a decent system that I put together mainly because of ecoustics, just give me a holla... I am a local bail bondsman and i am easy to get in touch with. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKn9in3aN-U and it's WAYYYYY louder now. with more to come, lol |

Gold Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 2023 Registered: May-07 | You will be hard pressed to find a SQL 12" sub that put out what the l7 15 does.. especially under $300. Would be easy to get better SQ, though.. I cant see getting even close to the output without it being a 15" sub.. is a 15" totally out of the question? how much space are u working with? Did you ever get the L7 metered on a termlab? curious as to what kind of numbers (DBZ) yours put out.. How much airspace did the L7 setup have? just a few questions.. |

Platinum Member Username: Nyyfan13Http://lowdo... Join My User... Post Number: 10919 Registered: Jul-06 | I'd take a look at either a Fi BL or a Audioque HDC3. Both are solid sql subs. I've heard the HDC3 before and they get loud as hell and decent sq. Not the best but certainly not the worst either. |

Bronze Member Username: That_guy_u_dont_knowKaplan, Louisiana United States Post Number: 12 Registered: Dec-08 | i just want the most boom for my buck and i want it to sound good everyone said it was crazy but it didnt sound that great i want it to be both |

Bronze Member Username: That_guy_u_dont_knowKaplan, Louisiana United States Post Number: 13 Registered: Dec-08 | i was lookin at the fi bl actually i think they would be good iv heard good reviews on them and no one has them that i know |

Gold Member Username: Hittin1Lake Charles, La. United States Post Number: 2024 Registered: May-07 | i would need to see the truck.. we talking extended cab? You dont know what size your old box was? Who built it? maybe he would know... As for price... the 15's are not much more expensive than than 12's, usually... Especially used.. Are you willing to go used? I never had a problem with used stuff from off of here. try 15" re xxx 04'05 model Maybe Scott from E, still has a DC sounds LVL 4 w/ LVL 5 coils.. it's a 12" and i know it will get loud, dont know about SQ from it. I think it's geared more toward SPL. DD3512 DD9112 RD alpha V.2 Treo SSi. (ssx if you can get more power) Ia Death penalty Soundsplinter rl-p or rl-s Audiopulse Revo many many other options |
