I have not heard any good reviews for L7's on this forum... I like all kicker subs... The RE will probably be recomended... by most..

Sound great? I guess SQ is REALLY subjective.

I personally like the way L7s sound in the right install, but the RE should be more reliable if your friend doesn't know what he's doing. The RE will most likely have better SQ as well. If he just listens to rap then just get an L7. Its cheaper and probably louder.}

Very very very few people say L5's sound good or any square sub at that.

What are you powering those L5's with?

id recommend the sx if you want to retain a little sq but go with the L7 if you just want to rattle your trunk

i used to have an l7 but then got a sx so id say i made a better choice this time around

I listen to Metal, classic rock and Rap... My jeep sounds good.... never had anyone tell me that the SQ was off.... now the solo x's are a different story.... I haven't spent the $ on the mids and highs to try to keep up with the solo's... I'm gonnas try to attempt to wall out my van.. Key word.... attempt! lol

at least 75% of S.Q is based on the install / box, not the subwoofer . if you have L5/L7s and they sound like S H I T you need to let someone else do your installs from now on! diy is not for everyone.

Im with Reese, the L7's can sound decent in a well built enclosure...Trust Me

I would say sq is very subjective, and depends about 90% install and 10% equipment used..

SX>L7
