The Kicker Solo-Baric L7 woofers continue to be the best sub in their class. The patented square-woofer technology allows for 18% more cone, which translates to more bang for your buck compared to competing round subwoofers. All new for the 2011 series is a redesigned and improved SoloKon cone. The new beautiful look was inspired by the big brother SoloX series, and it's making everyone at Sonic go crazy as it's tougher looking and better-performing.
In addition to the SoloKon improvements, the new L7 woofers also provide a much easier installation. The solid pole piece allows more heat sink capabilities and perimeter venting is built into the spider landing unlike previous years. This also allows for a shallower installation as you no longer have to account for venting through the back of the magnet. To make things even easier on the installer, Kicker moved the binding post to the corners of the woofer allowing for an easier connection when running the subs in parallel or series.

These L7's are the cause of people going deaf in more then 50 states. Not a fact but I could see it happening. I was amazed the first time I heard them and instantly fell in love. My dream came true when I got them. I have a ZX1500.1 with a birth cirtificate of 1625 watts rms and wow! I will be honest about this, if your looking for clarity and crisp bass don't bother. These are made for hurting your chest and vibrating your eye lashes. All Bass Heads know about these. L7's Sealed in boxes hit harder but ported boxs last longer and are crisp at the bass. Oh yeah, my L7's are hitting harder then my brother in-laws Type-R's with a T1000 amp.

I have two of these subs in my truck and man let me tell you they can get loud. i have them in a custom ported box tuned to 52hz running off of a 2400 watt orion hcca comp amp and on the db meter i have been able to hit 146.5db and i still have yet to upgrade the electrical under the hood. I hope by the time i get the big 3 done and some nvx sound deadener ill be able to hit around 150db. I would recommend these subs to anyone that wants to be heard.

i got this sub about six months ago i put it in a ported box and it was really loud tons of mirror shake and every once awhile with the right song you can feel your ear buds shaking. I have thurd it in a seald box as well and very clear i would recommend this if you want to be heard a few blocks away

Bought 2 of these in a kicker box wired down to 2 ohms. with a 1500.1 kicker amp 2 batteries upgrade alternator 0 gauge wiring. with all this these subs will pound like no tomorrow. They can handle power for a long period of time amps and subs alike. I had them for well over a year using them everyday for well more then half hour a day, never had one problem smell or anything. if your looking for something long term these are what to get. Recently sold tho, did buy a set of 15's l7's. should of done a long time ago. for a little bit more cash they hit even harder and deeper. Had to buy a 2500.1 zx amp to crank these bad boys up. the 1500.1 amp was really nice but 2500.1 even better well worth the money if you get for the right price. I have them in a 10 cubic foot box i made from kicker specs, still have not seen a louder system on the road with only 2 15's... Just as a reminder if you wire them up right you will never have a problem just go on there helpfull website if you are unsure what to do.
