2 kicker L7 12 inch in a vented box powered by a hifonics amp?! It doesn't sound as loud as it supposed to be.
I recently installed my new 2 12" kicker L7 in my hifonics amp. Amp is pushing each of the subs at 500 watts rms per channel.Subs are dual 4-ohm wired parallel. I have a hifonics zeus zxi1006. I expect my L7s to be louder. I am wondering if my vented box is too small.
Amp specs:
250 watts RMS x 2 @ 4 ohm
500 watts RMS x 2 @ 2ohm
1000 watts RMS x 1 @ 4 ohm (bridged)
Box specs:
35" (W) x 15 (H) x 14 (D)
Dual vented ( one per chamber) 13" x 1.5"
3/4 MDF
These are pretty expensive subs and I expect them to be louder. I thought ported/vented box are supposed to be louder but my old 2 kicker comp 15" in a sealed box seems louder when hooked up at 4 ohms( 250 watts RMS each) I am just wondering what could be the problem why these L7 monsters are not doing what they are capable of. I am open to any suggestions. Thank you in advance.
Have you tried to bridge the amp,subs do not need to be in stereo
