i blew my 15 and its coo cuz now i get to upgrade to kicker . but anyways what would be a louder setup 3 L5 10 or 2 L7 12 ??? its going to be in a seald box and the amp is the bd 10001 fosgate. thanks

3 10's would be louder cause of more cone area but I say go with the 2 12's since it is eaiser to setup a proper ohm load with only 2 speakers. IMO too you need to upgrade to a bigger amp.

archemedes

with kicker go with no smaller than the 12's they are a relativly inefficient sub (I wouldn't use them if payed to take them) it also depends on the music you play 12's play lower than 10's

hmm that gives me alot to think about thanks guys

Get the tens. They will be a lot faster expecially if you listen to a variety of music. The L5s will have plenty of power off of your amp. Your amp should be able to run at 1 ohm stable.

Ii got the 05 L7 12 I dont like the look of them really but they hit and i didnt get the grils..

archemedes

if your buying subs because they look good your buying audiobahn junk.

meissen

planet audios are great subs. try them.

omfg the L7 raddel my eye lids closed i can barely drive but i love it ............

I sugest L7 to any and all they are worth the money if you really wanna raddel your dash

Run 1 ohm and that RF amp will not live very long.

it's stable to 1 ohm, kicker subs don't like to play low though (they are designed for kickdrums in rock music)

RFF

Didn't say it was a t10001BD, I was thinking it was an older RF amp. If it is an RF amp maybe he should go with RF subs? I mean 3 10's are just gonna give you a gay ohm load and unless you are running something like a JL amp you have to worry about the ohm load (whether it is to low or to high).

archemedes

it would be fine, brand means little

RFF

I was talking about how the JL amp puts out 1000watts from 4 ohms to less than 1 ohm. With that amp you don't even have to care about the ohm load. Of course JL made their amps like this since they would be one of the only amps that could run the W7.

archemedes

too bad they don't build it (the circuit board looks very much like an rf)
