2024 video, part 2 of the kicker L715 versus the new soloX 15 (old L715s hit 140.9 db)

[@kennethkossie7917]

The L7X subs were never meant to be a direct replacement for the Q-ClassL7 subs. That's a misnomer. As previously stated, the enclosure requirements are vastly different between the L7s and L7Xs. If you're able, build an enclosure to Kicler's spec. If you're not able to build a proper enclosure, purchase a custom enclosure from a reputable builder. You'll be in for a very pleasant surprise! 😁 As for the terminals, that's minor in my opinion. Just familiarize yourself with the sub prior to installation so you know exactly what goes where. You have two of the baddest subs on the planet. Don't chase scores, enjoy the experience once you get them in. I'm certain the SPL score will surprise you as well.

Solo L7X has the potential to handle more power and move more air in its optimal box. The qclass L7Q15s might be another interesting comparison vs the Solo L7X15s.

Just subscribed I'm also into bass.

Bro I've been into this for years . This mini series was to let others know about the L715 and comparison of the L7X 15 . Throughout the years kicker has sent me all kinds of stuff for free. I sent them a 2500.1 I got off ebay and it was bad. I pad like 75$ to ship and their fee to look at the Amp and Anthony A , from kicker was cool af and called and said you want the new 2400.1. I said man I really want the 2500.1 and I don't Wana have to pay the difference. He sent me the 2400.1 at no additional cost afew yrs ago. I believe back in 2011 they sent me shirts and stuff because I've stayed with them so long . I had 8 12inch cvr subs in my ram1500 , it was a wall . Was awesome af. Another time I had awesome audio in Eustis fl do 4 L7 10s in a custom box in my Silverado with a custom back seat . Like the seat and box was all one. That was 2006 . I've always been a kicker fan. All my systems have been kicker . Well years ago I had Audiobon subs and an amp when I was 16 I'm 39 now . My wake board boat I put kicker but my new boat came with JL audio and I'm impressed but I'm a kicker fan for sure

The L7Xs need twice the power you have.

[@cristovalmontoya5222]

Bro you bought you some badass solox subs do you a favor a build or buy you a nice gately box or built or get built a custom double or triple baffle box. Tuned to about 32 hz. The box will make a huge difference. Time to break away from single wall mdf box.

[@brockmarquis8511]

I don't think it matters which CV you hook to first.

[@RammaJamma3]

U need double the power and proper box for X’s MB closures on utube hits 141.7 with 2 8’s from B2 and he did a box for a X 10 just one hit 150

[@RyanBassForLife]

Time to get another amplifier.

[@SG-Cichlids]

Your biz isn't correct for your l7. Two 15's should meter higher than that in my opinion. The solox's are going to need a much bigger box with more port area. For reference my single 12 l7 q class does 140's. Powered by a rockford fosgate t1500-1bdcp with the gain set to 900 watts.

[@jerebo84]

Yeah I have access to a warhorse amp but I'm looking for another kxa2400.1 so I have one on each sub. And yeah I seen the box specs for the l7x15 from kickers site. And watched the unmasked I think it was where they talked about enclosures and whatnot for the l7x lineup. I'm limited on space in a range rover sport. I can't eliminate my backseat I think I may have to go with a sealed box because I don't think I have the required cbft plus the huge port on top.

[@SG-Cichlids]

@@jerebo84 your amp isn't the problem your enclosure is. My 12 is in almost 3 cubes net with the correct port area. Your solox's are going to need a huge box. If I were you if run one of them and have a box made for it.

[@torrez8144]

⁠@@SG-Cichlidsmy custom box is 3.23cb net for my solo x 12 tuned at 33hz and damn it hits the high notes perfect and when the lows come to play damn it digs deep especially when i play dj dirty bass it’s crazy how low it can play

[@Thumper68]

That enclosure to small for both pair of subs. And the q bomb boxes are not that good in reality.

[@delvinchandler]

I wanted the solo x no matter the price, and i have 12's going in the bed of my avalanche they should be louder in a personally made box. My box is going to be exactly 6 cubes

[@jerebo84]

I had some l715s in my avalanche and I took the wall out but left the top glass , it was the perfect blow through. I miss my avalanche. I ended up putting 26s inch wheels on it and a caddy front end and it looked great we all called it the avalade lol

[@delvinchandler]

@@jerebo84 perfect

[@jefferybanas1605]

Get a custom box. 86 the Q bomb.

[@ThatDaveGuy77]

Are you seriously trying to figure out if it’s worth it compared to the regular L7 when you put the X in an enclosure WAY to small running them on half their rated power.. JFC you can’t make this shit up 🤦‍♂️

[@jerebo84]

Jfc lol go watch the video on how to determine enclosure specs. It's not way to small lol

[@ThatDaveGuy77]

@@jerebo84 which video is that.. I’d love to see how you came to that determination 🤣🤣🤣… According to q powers website that box is 2.3cf per sub with a tiny ass port.. those subs need 5cf pers sub net.. that box is tuned to 39hz which has to sound horrible for a 15.. 30hz is where you want to tune them.. I mean hell you’re suppose to have 70.125sq inches of port area for one sub.. that box has less than that for 2 ..

[@jerebo84]

@ThatDaveGuy77 the video is up dickhead. Length x width x height and if math isn't your strong suit there's lots of cubic ft calculators free to use on Google which is what I did. I took actual measurements and put into a calculator and I didn't include ports in the measurements. These videos are intended for those considering to upgrade only their subs. If you broke bums aren't actually considering to upgrade only your subs your input isn't of importance lol

[@Triplej863]

when you start with the word q bomb, youre already lost. get a proper box dude seriously. thing's probably tuned to 44hz. youre nowhere near the specs for those subs, old or new. especially the new solos, they take 5cuft each. youre choking those poor subs
