genius764 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Posted March 12, 2013 I was not going to mix any subs. The Kicker are coming out. I can't find anything negative on the Obsidian subs. Open to ideas. sorry I read that wrong haha. Obsidians are good quality subs for the price but like said before im not sure if you are going to gain a whole lot from subs that are that close to your L7's. What kind of price range are you looking at?It's not so much price I am looking at but 400ish for the amp and roughly the same per sub I guess.

genius764 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Posted March 12, 2013 I was thinking that 3 12s in a solid ported box would pretty good. Also mt alt is stock. Thought of upgrading but not quite ready.
MIKE-2U Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 4 12s or back to 2 15s. I have 2 15s and love them. Plenty of room in that vehicle go with the 15s in a nice ported box.

Skullz Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 Switching out to something even remotely close to what you have now is just pissing money away cause chances are you won't notice a difference and will be back posting as to why it hasn't changed. You will need to get into the 3k + watt range with something capable of taking that power built in a properly designed and built enclosure will sound much better. If all you intend to do is switch gear to something closer to what you have now will only lead to disappointment and frustration and feeling like you just pissed away a lot of money. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2

john253a Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 @john253 thanks for the input. I would like to have a proper box for the l7s. Anyone one here I should look up that would ship it. I'm no box builder. Also 2x15=30 and 3x12=36...lol noone else see this anyway, it doesnt work like that to make it easy will go off the actual size and not the true cone size 15 x15 x2off 450sq" (6 x6 x(22/7)) x3off 340sq" (pieRsq for round) now thats 25% less cone to change or 33% more cone to stay edit post up some measurements well see what we can do but i can tell you the box will be somewhere around 22x48x22" if you want it done right and if your box is nowhere near that in size then you will see more of a difference doing that then any other upgrade or mod

I'm not knocking you subs in question in any way, but they are not going to help you either without adequate battery power, amplifier power, and an experienced enclosure / system build ...
