i have a 2000 v6 ilv tooken the factory head unit out and put in a deh-770mp pioneer premier head unit with a pioneer deq-7600 digital equalizer pioneer 3 way speakers all the way around with kenwood component tweeters where the stock 460 ones go, a kicker cvr 10" woofer and a 5 channel amp from orion i plan on changin my sub to a 12" L7 from kicker and a mtx thunder895 5 channel amp do u think i should put 3 way components in the front or jus leave the speakers i have now?

 

Depending on make/model, yes I would install 3 way components in the front. I'd guess a good 2-300 dollars per door for the install.

Is the L7 the square Solobaric? If so, what is prompting you to purchase this?

 

yea its a solobaric i like the sound it does have more surface area han a normal 12" sub. some people have tryed to tel me they are sloppy but my dad has 2 10" solobarics and his sounds great i gues they jus dont kno wut they are doing plus they are sumthing different everyone expects round subwoofers not square ones

 

Why a 5-channel? All thats going to do is send maybe 100-200 watts to your sub, if thats all your looking to get out of it, it'll work fine but no L7 is going to be happy with 100 watts. Also ever thought about MTX woofers? Sound awesome and they'll be easier on the wallet. 3 ways are what I'd recommend, if you truly want an awesome SQ system and by awesome I mean you are an SQ fanatic. Otherwise a solid set of 2-ways should be plenty for the otherwise listener. I would replace your componets either way, running all different brands is just going to vary the sound too much IMO.

 

yea im definetly big on SQ and the amp i have now pushes 400 to my sub and 50x4 its old and i dont trust it i jus need a 5 way until i can afford a kicker mono amp but i wunt to get the 3 ways first

 

and no mtx woofers ilv put 3 diferents systems next to myne one with a 12 and the other 2 with 2 10's and they jus cant do what mine does and i only have 1 10 so ild rather wait and get a 12" L7 then get 2 more L7 10's

 

I dont understand you said you had a 10 and then a 12 against 2 10's? Clarify please.

 

I think they expect round drivers becaue they are proven. You don't see square monitors in studios/labs.

There is a reason(s) square drivers never caught on, or any shape other than round for that matter.

 

There are tons better amps than kicker out there, if you are REALLY big on SQ.

 

^^^Definatly second that ^^^
