Hey g35driver.com I was just talking to my friend about buying his system because he wants to upgrade. He has 2 10" solo baric kicker L7's with a capacitor and a hifonics brutus bxi 2008d 25th anniversary edition amp. He said he would sell me everything for 450. Is that amp good for those subs? I have had my eye on L7's since I was 13 lol.

Please let me know what you think

I'm not buying the box from him because he had it in his navigator, so the box was huge. I was thinking about buying one of those custom boxes off ebay. But is that amp good for those subs? I know its a class D amp but it looks pretty good. What do you think I should do? Is it a good deal?

1. You won't fit 2 in the proper box into a coupe
2. DO NOT buy a prefab box on ebay.

It seems to be a decent deal, though

2 L7 = 340 and the amp is 240. You're getting a decent deal, but nothing jaw dropping. Capacitors are unnecessary though, I would ask him if you can just buy the sub and amp for a lower price

Seems like he wants loud.

Are you willing to give up your spare tire?
