Ryder954 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 So right now i have 2 12" L7's and 2000 watts (hifonics brutus amp) and i wanted to get louder (who doesnt? haha) so anyways, my friend said to just get another 2000 watt amp. But 2 12" l7s can only have 3000watts max... wouldnt 4000watts blow them? only if i have the amps up too high right? oh yeah and i was thinking of putting each 2000 watt amp on each subwoofer. so id be overpowering the L7 by 500 watts... Thanks for the help!

Chris from Mi Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 nope, i'd start with a better box, then better subs, then better electrical, then better amp Orion 2500D, Jbl Gto 75.4 Team Wolfpack Audio FSQ 15" d2, mb quart xover, tweets peerless 6.5 mids Alpine cda-105 optima up front Knu klm 1/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondaonchrome Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I would suggest getting a different box made if you got your off ebay(alot of prefabs on ebay)A nice box will make those subs be what they are supposed to be....LOUD!! From my experience those 2 subs should be loud but i really dont know because i havent heard your subs, for instance my 2 kicker 12" cvx's are way louder than my buddy's 2 L7's but he has a shitty box. All i can say is that you have 2 nice subs and maybe just get a better box made and then if your still not happy then decide what you want to do about upgrading.
