ok heres the deal. the sub is a dual 4 ohm not dual 2. runs on the amp fine. turns out what i was thinking. one voice coil was shot on the sub and i just blew the last one out today. the Motherf*cker ripped me off. is it possible to send this in to get repaired?

Ya cant get a recone on an l7 but if ya find a dealer they can prolly use it for a trade in an a refurb,i did the same thing, wound up costing me 350 for a new one with the trade in,id just toss it if i had it to do again......

The exact same thing happened to my friend when he bought two L7's off ebay except only one was fried. Only his didnt smoke the whole system shut down and then turned back on. After a bit we traced it to the one sub and took it out of the box and the whole truck filled with the sweet smell of kicker smoke. He contacted the guy who sold it to him on ebay and the guy payed the shipping back to him and sent him a brand new one. Check with the guy who you bought it from because sometimes they have the compassion to help you out............sometimes.

i have gone through about 3 of these and had the same problem, and i was running a us amp (ab class 600) on each, and after about 1 yr i could smell it burning. they are great sounding speakers and hit really hard but be careful to the power on them. from my experience with them they tend to blow alot.

yea i contacted kicker and there were going to ship me a new one for 120 but im in canada so she said they cant do anything for me. im very pissed off. i bought this thing a week ago. never going kicker again. had last years comps and went through 2 pairs of those too.. shitty quality let me tell u. didnt even power 800 rms into it and it blows.
