That should be plenty power for those L7s.

I agree. The main thing is make sure you have them in the right enclosure. Thats the key when it comes to a subs performance.

Yes, it is 1 ohm stable. I have the 2200D on 2 Fosgate 4 ohm DVC's and it stays cool. I've had no problems at all with mine.

1500 watts @ 1 ohm, even though it will probably do around 1100 REAL power. Hifonics does rate their amps to do more than they actually will, but for the price they are still a value IMO.

I love mine. I've heard the same from just about everybody; they don't do the power they claim, but they run cool, are reliable, and for what you pay they are worth it. See if you can find a store that sells them and listen to one. The one you are talking about will probably do around 900 RMS.
