raytard Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 can be like me and rock 4 8's sq is eh...but its expected for the spl oriented box i built. with 1500rms i can get em stinky if i push it hard, but for the most part they're fine. quite a bit louder than my 2 12's in an sq box. just something to consider...and i got all 4 for like 200 and change(2 models back), built a box for like 30 bux in wood and parts. if you ran 2@4ohm, the box is only like 3cubes including port (mine is like 5 ish with 3/4 of the port out of the box) dont play it with a kid in there...i hate when i see that, developing ears are very sensitive and easily damaged.

bigbodylexus Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 The Kicker L5's are pretty decent subs, I have ran 2 of the 12's for over 2 years and never had a problem with them, I did buy a prefab box and I think they might get a little louder with a custom box but other than that I cannot say that I wasn't pleased with them Quote 1990 Chevy Suburban (Big Booty Judy) (4) Sundown Audio Zv5 18's (1) Sundown Audio Salt 12K (1) Sundown Audio SAX-100.4 (1) Sundown Audio SAE-50.4 (2) Crossfire ST-1 Tweeters (2) Obsidian Audio ST-1 tweeters (4) Sundown Audio Neo Pro v3 6.5's Saving 2nd Bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAMBUMP Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 like mentioned above dont let the kid hear it. im sure you know this but safety is always worth mentioning! not doubting you at all man, we're just lookin out! youll be happy with anything you go with, everything listed so far has been quality labels. just get you a good box built, dont go with prefab.

Red-navi-916 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 are you stuck on kicker, and buying from a chain store? there is no point of trying to change his mind... he likes kicker and thats all up to him..especially if he has mids highs etc etc.and wants ot match it all but if your more in to sq and not spl then id go with kicker L5s or L7s i have L7s and im happy with them but its time for something new..im sure either way u go you wont be disappointed Quote BUILDLOG http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=61862 "98crewcab"Never a POS....just always "a work in progress" lol that's how we roll bitches!!!

tacomabanga1986 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 well when i go places with my gf/fiance i play subs just not that loud and prolly at 10 on volume, but when i have him in there i aint gunna be playin the sub(s) at all, its just gunna be for me when i go places, or when me and her go places n want to jam or w/e, and a prefab takes up the right amount of space i want to use, i might halfto modify my rear speakers tho cause that sub sits up to high and on the sides are were the 6&1/2's go for rear fill, i might cut out some holes in the bottom of the back and mount em there, and put the amps in the cubby holes, and prolly put the battery somewere else, i want the least amount of space but still have a decent sounding system, im just doin this to save money and when he gets a lil bit older i might redo it and do a half wall with 4 12's and a t2000 or somethin like that, ima go with somethin alot louder on down the road just not for now, and im listening to more country n rock now a days than rap, and i made a custom eq setting number 2 on the hu so when i want to play somethin but without subs i can just put it there n set my xovers and all i get is clean midbass, and it works out ok, anyways thanks for the input guys, and im not stuck on kicker i just want to try out square subs Quote here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
