There are a lot of car audio brands that I remember when younger that are no longer here. Kicker is one of the few brands that have still have a presence today. Just saying…
Salute!! Tried to go big this summer with my first l7, bought a used 15. Got it home and realized the leads were seperated.. 😂 sticking to solo classic i guess for now. Gonna try 4ohms today also.
Just ran across your channel. My WRX offered Kicker and just replaced all my OE speakers with Subaru Kicker OE. I got kids and their sports sh*t to haul so the Kicker 8’s are all I’ve been thinking about because I can do dual 8’s under my parcel shelf and still have SPACE…because #adulting.
I've got me one of these a while now, it looks way more sexy in person, can't wait to get it in my car and the nice thing about it is you don't need much power to play it
Man I got 2 10 inch in my truck! Love the L7 Drivers paired with my JL Audio RD Amplifiers, but I’m a have to get a custom box for them for sure to hear them pound in a ported box one day.
Still rocking my pre Q class L7 8" in a "portable" custom box now used for home audio. 2" port 1+cf box and cutoff somewhere around 200 hz. Given my civil rights have been curbed was a treat hearing them today do 90+ db balanced where mids and highs run off my Sherwood S7300 after a couple of years. Alpine amp running off of LifemnPO deep cycle and gets stereo bass when ran in series as to make amp happy (900PDX). I will try to post clip soon. I think the manufacturer recommendations for ports are too large opening. Birch is overrated. Denim fill and your compliance volume will make em sound bigger and not everyone needs to purchase 12s 15s etc unless you are driving to some sound off.
We have the official "unofficial wink" from Kicker employees that the Solo X 8" is being worked on. Most likely coming 2024. The square Q Class is discontinued, but round is still in stock. They are not dropping the Q Class, they are making a replacement for them. 😉
@@gaddy8964 Are you saying you have a 2500BDCP amp and want to know which is "better" using four DD 2508's or four Kicker L7S 8's? That is not a simple question. Better can mean a lot of different things. MB has said the 2508 is one of the best 8's in output and sound quality, but it's pricey at about $450 each. The L7S is much cheaper, but are in a lower performance category. If you are not going to max out the power, want good sound quality and a cheaper price then the L7S might be the better choice for you. If you do want to max out the power to get very high spl as well as sound good and can afford it, the 2508 is the better choice for you. I have no experience with either subwoofer so I can only go by how MB describes them. Both have good sound quality, but the more expensive can play a bit louder. I think over the next week he will directly compare the two subs. That might make your decision easier.
I respect kicker as a lasting brand for the average person. But that’s where kickers stop, they aren’t winning any competition nor do you ever see them in any competition regardless of spl or sq. Dollar for dollar kicker just doesn’t stand a chance to the vast majority of brands. I love kicker and have all my life but I’m a realistic person and there’s just no way kicker is relevant other than Best Buy and Walmart.
You have bought into the hype of other speaker and amp manufacturers that you need huge magnets and tons of cheap dirty power. When MBE gets done with these solo basics you will be a Kicker believer friend.
The competition scene died way down back in the day so Kicker got out of competing and promoting them. They have starting rising in popularity the last 5 years or so. Kicker has decided to get back into the competition scene. Thats when they started designing the Solo X that is just now starting to roll out. Kicker is forming teams to compete in SPL right now. The 12" is released, the 10" and 15" will be released later this year. There is a confirmed 18" coming. There will be an 8" version (unofficially confirmed by employees). There is a new Kicker Warhorse line of amps being produced. The first mono amp 3,600W will be out later this year. Bigger versions to follow. Warhorse 4 channels as well. So the battle plans are drawn. Kicker will be launching a competition attack over the next year or two. They will most likely dominate the competition scene just like they did in the past. I think you will be changing your opinion of Kicker pretty soon. 👍

I just found 1 of my old sub in the garage.lol its a 8 inch solo baric L7 silver face...wonder if the subwoofer will sound as nice as the Qs...
Wish we could bring "made in America" back!!! We need the jobs here not china!! 🎉
When I first got into car audio back in the early 90s people hated on Kicker. They was like get some Pioneer, Cerwin Vega, Phoenix Gold or JL.
Been running kicker subs since they were Stillwater designs “kicker” in the 80s.
Man what a beautiful lil sub
I’m a kick boy them l7 still knocking in that MBE box. I wish I had a meter.

You should review the kicker L7thin!!
I have one, I need one more.
I don't know what kicker think,Q Class was a beast catching every note made me a believer
There will be a replacement.
Well said, love my kickers!!!!❤
About to text you RIGHT now.... wondering if you can do 4 of these in a underseat box for a 19 F150!
Two of these vs two comp RT 10 inches?
I’m always a Kick Boi!!!! 🫡💯
I had some kicker comp round 12s in a sequoia in a sealed box them mf dig so deep it would make your ears pop
Can you please do a comparison from kicker and db drive? Just to see how they compare to one another. 🙏
I got 2 12s and they sound good
So the l7 10 rms is 650 is that the true max of these subs or could we push them past that
Is the S better than the R
Do you still have the q class 10s and 2ohm in stock still or no
I have my Q 10s. They are the truth💯
Yea they are
Truth,truth,truth......
Excellent unboxing video.
Rep yo sh*t.😳🤨
I need a box for a 2014 crewmax I’m getting 2 8s L7s
2 l7s 8s or 1 L7T 12s?
Kicker fan boy here and ready can't wait
rip 🪦 kicker q class
but let's see what the solo baric got 🎉🎉🎉
I still believe cone area IS KING!!!!!❤
I have three of them on CXA1800 in 2016 f150.
You got any videos?
Well said brother 100%
I want 4 of these
What you need to push 2 of them
Man am not from america so can't get you to build me a box. Need a box dimension for 2x p3d4 15 RFF. Thanks man
Kicker L7 and solo x for life
Kicker l7 8" 600w rms.. or to get dd 2508 non supercharged 800w rms
Do you think 4 of them or 2 would be louder in a late model f150?
Louder, like a burp box for competition?
I need 2 ASAP
Get at me.. in a dealer
hey, I have two 12s of the exact ones on your video, what kind of box do you recommend?
With those subs I'll blow out some competition thinking they are louder .done it multiple times 😅😂lol
Try the L7T
The current Q Class "is" end of life, it ran for over 10 years and it was time. The for what?? Stay tuned...😉
I own a kicker square shallow subwoofer .
No seat lift needed in the 2012 to 2016 f250 as well?
Yes sir
Thanks! I will be ordering from you soon.
My first l7 r 15 was 280$ now they done jump up to 350$. You see what a little good advertising can do lol. Smdh

Kicker 🫶🏾

The solo x has been released for a few months now
@@joshholden8561 Yeah, the 12" is currently out. I'm not sure why you commented that, but okay. 👍
I'd like to know what would be best to go with in comparison as far as 4 of those to 4 DD 2508's using the Fosgate 2500BDCP in your box..?
I'm not sure what your asking. You want something better, more expensive?
@JasonWW2000 bauxite which is the better setup between the two different brands using 4 8in subs on that Rockford Fosgate T2500-1bdCP
