View Full Version : Question about Kicker L5&L7 subs ynot 08-08-2002, 10:25 PM What is the diference between them ? Is it just how much power they can handle or is there more ? Also anyone know how well they would fit in a regular cab ? I was thinking maybe a couple of 12's would fit without loosing too many notches on the seat:naughty: BC Rod and Custom 08-10-2002, 01:04 AM The L5's are last year's L7's. I'd get those because they can be had extremely cheap and they still sound awesome. I loved the L7's when they came out last year but I couldn't justify spending 350 bucks on 1 speaker for my truck when I bought all of my Infinity speakers for 300 bucks. But if you are looking for badass bass I would get the L5's. You won't notice a whole lot of difference between the two. ynot 08-10-2002, 08:37 AM Do you think I could get 12's behind the seat in a reg. cab or am I going to have move the seat foward alot ? aberbaseball7 08-10-2002, 01:29 PM I may be wrong but i think that those subs hit better in bigger boxes. I know a guy that has an L5 12" being pushed by a Lightning audio 1000 watt amp (or a big one that they offer) and it sounds so bad ass. Very tight loud bass, he has 1 12 and the box goes all the way across the back seat. This way you have more space for that sub, you cut that in half and they will be starving for space. Also they sound better in a ported box. I would say to get a custom box built by a prof so that you dont spend alot of money and not get the most out of the sub. Also using a big amp will also help tons, they are very powerfull subs and need lots of power. I would have one but the lift broke the budget, so i have an Rockford HE2 with alittle Fosgate sub and it sounds pretty good. Also those Rockford Subs are also powerfull, i would highly recomend the HE2's and the Power Hx2's Funk 08-10-2002, 08:53 PM solo's just like the compvr's are designed specifically for small enclosures not sure why yours would sound better in a bigger box... as for the square ones I would say get ya a couple of the old round solo's or even compvr's (they have HUGE deep bass) I still don't trust all the weird shaped subs, to many edges to be moving under 150+ db 2k1Slvrdo 08-10-2002, 10:44 PM Originally posted by z-71rocks The L5's are last year's L7's.

Last years L7s took way more power than the current L5s... and i'm also guessing u haven't heard them against each other. The new L7s sound alot better than the l5s. But the L7s require to much air space if ur gonna run em under the seat, unless u got a amp with some major balls... 2k1Slvrdo 08-10-2002, 10:47 PM Originally posted by Funk I still don't trust all the weird shaped subs, to many edges to be moving under 150+ db Funk that's what i thought at first, but the solobaric have to be the best bang for ur buck in subs... If anyone here thinks the type R alpines sound good, the kickers sound alot better. I'd recomend anyone to get kickers, they love small spaces and give off really tight souding base ynot 08-10-2002, 10:55 PM Originally posted by 2k1Slvrdo NO they aren't... Look at the specs.

They would be going behind the seats . Right now I have a RF punch 800.2 amp,but am thinking of getting a jbl 1200.1 2k1Slvrdo 08-10-2002, 11:07 PM 10 l5s.. maybe one.. i don't know how much room is back there, but solobarics kick ass becuase they like the small spaces... Funk 08-10-2002, 11:33 PM i love solo's i used to have a set in my monte carlo but I blew the **** out of them the rockford I had on em pounded them like nothing i've ever heard then I went to 2 15" kicker comps in my toyota spl truck now I have 2 12" compvr's under my rear seat Im a kicker man by heart ynot 08-11-2002, 09:38 AM Would my RF 800.2 be enough to push to 10" L5's ? Tiburon 08-11-2002, 01:05 PM Would my RF 800.2 be enough to push to 10" L5's ? Yes, that amp should be a power 2 10L5's. Funk, tell me more about your setup under your truck's rear seat. Funk 08-11-2002, 01:19 PM we raised the seat brackets by 3 1/4 inches by cuting them apart and welding in a spacer the box's are home made by me with 2 12" kicker compvr's the amp pushing them is a kicker zr360 with subwoofer module power to the amp(s) is from a stinger distribution block, and a red neon tube lighting up the system the mids all 4 kicker resolutions are powered by a rockford 220a2 mounted on the tranny hump under the seat behind the kicker amp vBulletin v3.5.1, Copyright ©2000-2008, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
