    What are the specs on that amp? Can't seem to find them anywhere. I have 2 12" L5s, and those slam hard enough. I can't imagine how hard those L7s would slam.

            I have a single 12' L5 hooked up to an orion 600.1 (1200w at 1 ohm) and it pounds. Sounds a million times louder and better than my 2 old comps did. I would say it depends on your budget. The only difference in the subs is the L5 can handle 600rms and the L7 can handle 750, correct me if i'm wrong on that.

            Either way you go I strongly suggest buying from ebay. I found my L5, brand new still sealed up in factory plastic for $146 shipped. Thats less than half of the price at any retail store.

                With that amp there's no point in getting the L7's b/c you arent going to be able to give them what they can handle.

                    ?? If his amp puts out 1500WRMS @ 1ohm, he can get 2 12" L7s (rated at 750WRMS a piece) and use up the whole 1500W. Just get 2 DVC 4ohms and wire them up to 1ohm.

                      I suppose you are correct. My L5 is the 2ohm DVC coil version so that's where I was getting my logic.
