2 kicker L7 12's under the seat... possible?
Friend of mine had two kicker l7 12's in his 02 f150 and i was wondering if it was possible to run this in an 04 supercrew with a seat lift? Right now im running two pioneer 12's in a ported box (lil over 3 ft. cubic air space) and had a local shop make me a 3" seat lift. If anyone knows of this same set up let me know or point me in the direction cause im really curious. thanks

Anything is possible, but I have to ask are the L7s going to be ported too? And why L7s?
|
how in the heck did you squeeze 3 cubes out under the reat seat? I'm having a custom ported box designed for a 10 and on the long side I am able to get right at 1.55cf.
Pics Please! {EDIT)...ah never mind I found your photo gallery. https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...-much-room.jpg https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...ure18614-a.jpg If you're designing boxes like that why not just yank the back seat out and go wild? |
Wow, that's not very passenger friendly. :o

i had 2 pioneer 12" premier but they were the slim ones
they sound great and you don't need a lot of space to make the box like on the pics. lol |
well when the box was made i figured if someone was riding in the back seat then they are getting a free ride anyway so forgett them, i still wanted a back seat tho (suprisingly a lot of people ride back there). but it came down to 3 subs: JL w7, kicker l7, and the memphis mojo. weighing the price, sound quality and overall loudness i chose the l7. the l7 i can also fit 2 12's and still keep my back seat... maybe. some people say they are not clean but from what i have experienced they are pretty nice and rediculously loud. I think kicker's flaw in the l7 is that they only hit hard on really low notes but after listening to 2 12's in another truck, they are kinda growin on me. new thought just came to me tho, strip the seat of the leather and padding and build a box that will mimic a seat and then re-install the padding and leather. only problem is im not sure if i have enough room behind the back seat to squeeze the amp i need. id like to port the box but im not sure if i have that much room.

I've heard good things about the Memphis subs. Not any particular models though. I really like to go for the non-mass produced speakers. They tend to have more focus on quality than quantity. -ie Memphis

4 BMs would be louder and cost less and fit better and sound 932487346530 times better. But i think you are just in it for the rap boom so whatever do as you please. :lol: |

BTW, your truck is sick. Got any pictures of them x plod? |
if your going through the trouble, get good subs, l7 in the cab cant sound that great, in a big trunk at least some of the distortion gets lost before it hits ur ears..

u know big isnt always the way to go...get the seat lift and sum hevy hitting 10"s and it will sound way better..i made a big mistake of stuffing shallow 12's under my truck and i dont regret it, but when i get new subs im goin with 2 solid 8's or 1 solid hitting 10...ever heard of Fi? RE audio? those other SpL brands..i would check out memphis too just like impact9 said
