That sub:
Power range: 50-750 RMS watts (375 watts per voice coil)
Look for something in the 1200-1400w rms @ 1 ohm power range. Hifonics or MA Audio would be your best choice as far as budget goes. |

he said from 1200 to 1400 and 100 watts makes a diff and actually shouldnt be from 1500 to 1700 or somewhere around there cus wouldnt i want more watts cus 750 is the rms and the peak is 1500 |

would this amp be good enough i found it for 180 online wich is pretty good and it gives out 1500 watts out when its at a 1 ohm load wich is what two 4 ohm L7s would equal right? well tell me if it seems like a good amp for the pair CRUNCH PZI15001 - 1500 Watt Mono Block |

junk, crunch isnt a good brand. dont buy their sh!t, RMS rating is the amount of watts u can push ur sub continuosly without reaching its thermal limits. ignore peak power unless your wnating to compete and in that case use peak power when burping ur system (play a test tone for 3 seconds and full power) a coil can only sustain the peak wattage for a very short timespan before reaching its thermal limits which i talked about earlier. back to the question, Hifonics makes good budget amps this is probably your best choice under 250 http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=14804 |

Quintin, get MA audio out of your head man!
for the money i'd use a Hifonics BXI 1606D or 2006D. Another amp is the new PA line SLd 2000D i think... also cheap. |

thas good thanks guys well ill prolly end up going with one of the hifonics amps i use to have a 12" hifonics Atlas and i was really impressed but it got jacked kinda pissed but glad cus it gives me a reason to get a better system i think my 2 L7s will sound a lot louder than just one 12" atlas |
