Zero. L7s are crapola drivers, unless you JUST want loud... There, you'll be set in spades.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

i hope you are talking about 8 inch L7's. because .66 cubic feet seems a bit small per sub. and its always better to have less subs with proper airspace than more subs with too little airspace. too little airspace can damage a sub over time

kicker subs are meant to be loud and not much else. ofcourse only you can tell if something sounds good to you. but as far as build quality and capability there are way better subs out there for the price.

Agree 100% about the Kickers. Over rated, but they're such a houshold name that everyone thinks they're the greatest thing since pb&j. They're good for SPL, but that's about it. If you're looking for something with good tonal quality, look elseware.
