Team Sundown's Charles Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I got a kicker L7 15 D4. The specs say it can do 1000 watts rms and 2k max. My first question is this per coil or both . My thinking is per coil. Right now the sub is on a ZX1500.1. So each coil is getting around 750 rms. Now i was wondering if I get a D2 could I hook up a ZX1500 to each coil? (i would use a maxlink) Would these speaker be able to handle that much power. I can't afford a solo x and don't want to change brands and I really don't have room to add a second sub unless I remove the back seat.

IH8PunkRok Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 no the rating is for both coils as a whole so technically 500 rms per coil Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't do it. Edited April 1, 2008 by mtxcivic07 Quote 18's in a wall to come....Its not all about the posts....check the member #... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquill1 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 You may want to change brands. You pay retail for one of those l7's or no? Cerwin vega stroker hifonics olympus orion are decently priced... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a buddy that did a 150 in a van with a single l7 with 1500 watts, so dont say they wont get loud. They can handle more then 1000 but its not recommended. The most i would put to it is 1500.
