Hadec Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) First off.. is this a good deal? I don't think the amp powers the subs fully though. http://www.hifisoundconnection.com/Kicker-Car-Audio-15-Pair-S15L7-Dual-2-Ohm-Loaded-Ported-Subwoofer-Box-ZX1500.1-Amp-Amplifier-Install-Kit-KICKERUMAP48 I am not sure where to place my subs. Either I put them in my trunk or put them facing up behind my back seats. The problem with my trunk is that it is blocked completely by the back seat. If I put them facing up how will I make them ported without carving into my seats -.- Here are pictures of what my car looks like. My trunk. Above my back seats.

new guy Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 you could get wayy better equipment for 1k then that. but if your set on that id look around for used you could get all that for around 500 or 600 and build your own box they will sound horrible in that prefab box.

Wow thanks, I definitely won't go with that kit then. So your saying put them in the trunk? Btw, I found some cheaper. http://www.hifisoundconnection.com/Kicker-Subwoofer-Package-2-S15L7-4-Ohm-Subs This way I can get my own box and amp for them. Or do I want to look for 2 ohm subs? If anyone can find cheaper (2) 15" Kicker L7's that would be great too. Thanks! And one more thing. I would want a 2000w RMS @2 ohms amp for both of these correct? Or higher because of their peak? Sorry for all of the questions. Just trying to learn Edited October 27, 2011 by Hadec Quote Working on my first car audio build ever!

Sanitarium Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 I find the best placement for these subs has always been in a landfill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new guy Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) yeah id get a 2k rms amp. but if i were you id look around at different brands before you make a decision. l7 are good subs but you could get much better for the price. id look into dc audio audioque fi sundown they all make very quality subs, they will get louder and sound a hell of alot better then the l7s. they will also be cheaper.
