Description

Authorized dealer

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 08/09 series is a redesigned and improved SoloKon one-piece, injection-molded cone with full-coverage back bracing that pushes more air and creates louder bass than ever before. 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.

8" L7 kicker

The following review is for 11S8L74, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This thing hits like a 12. Very satisfied with the sub and due to its size, I was able to custom build a spot for it where nothing else would fit. Big boom in small package. Great buy

great value

The following review is for 11S8L74, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Every day this sub blows me away. For an 8 this thing pounds like 2 12's. Increadible.

small size, big sound!

I am using two of these subs in the truck of my BMW 330ci convertible. They fit perfectly underneath the convertible top storage compartment. For the limited amount of space these subs produce a great solid sound that don't over do it.

Kicker L7

The following review is for 11S8L74, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

The Kicker L7 is an amazing subwoofer, I bought 2 8" L7's and I think that they are better than most 12" subs. Super accurate and always clean sound. So much bass from these little subs, I couldn't be any happier to say I have the best subs Kicker makes

Great Buy

The following review is for 11S8L74, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I must say I am happy surprised with this subwoofer. I searched for a long time for the right subwoofer for my truck and space was limited. I wanted SPL along with clean quality bass. Most of the time square subs along with Kicker get slammed for the sound quality. After I had purchased the subwoofer I read many reviews of the 15, 12 and 10 inch sub of this model and most people said it is loud and simply sloppy. I want to remind people this is an 8 inch sub. It is meant for a small box in which case that gives you the tight accurate bass many people are looking for. If you build a solid box and give this some nice power it will sound amazing. It is loud and clear you just need to take your time tuning it because it will start to sound different when you turn it all the way up.

L7 O8S8L74 SOUNDS GREAT

I put one of these in a 2007 Honda Civic and it sounds great. I built a 1.47 cu. ft. box with a 2"x9.5"x21.25" port as specified by Kicker and hooked it up to a Kicker ZX 400.1 and it hits really hard. I was pleasantly surprised by the smooth response and how loud it is. I never thought I would have to use sound dampening with such a small sub but everything in the car rattles. GREAT product at a fair price.

Get this sub!!!!!!!

I recommend this sub to everyone I ordered it for my buddy he has a single cab Colorado and it pounds its hooked up to a 2000 watt Power Acoustic Stax puts out a lot of bass better than two tens easily and is super clean great for the price as well. This sub is in a ported box as well its way more than I ever expected.

Kicker's Name say's it all

I recently purchased 1 solo baric L7 and a zx700.5 amp. I had to custom build a box to go into my 07 tacoma but it was well worth the wait. Many people i have talked to think this single 8, yes a little 8 in sub, is louder than my previous 2-10's. I have to say it makes my truck shake quite well. I am very happy with the product! Customer service was great as well. They were polite and very knowledgeable.
