Its not the box or the L7s . Its a power problem. You are probably not really seeing 400 watts with those amps at 1 ohm. try reversing the polarity on the subs also. Lots of times when FF subs you will need to wire both subs out of phase. ALso make sure you dont have a phase probloem. Try the l7 subs one at time and see if you get any difference. I have used l7s in a FF enclosure here and we ran 1200 watts rms on them and they pounded. Shook your insides in the exact same enclosure you have

My last resort will be a new box, not going to scrap it any time soon.
Did the poly fill hurt?

These are the old school 2nd Gen 225's, before the DEI buy out. I have seen test where they put out closer to 425 at 1ohm.

Going to reverse the polarity and post back later.

Does your amp look like this? If so those amps really didnt make tons of power til you dropped them down to half ohm. But you have to have the current to let it work and they do get rather warm. These old school are very good but only if you can feed the current to them

Close that is a Gen 3 with the crossover, my Gen 2 look like them with out the crossover.

Swapped polarity and it helped some, may need the subs to burn in some more.
May try 1 225 at .5ohm stereo, only stable at .5ohm in stereo mode.

Need to fix the display on my CEQ7 so i can play with the parametric EQ setting.

Gen 1 225 mono 2ohm on 2 12" Savard's in a Nissan 720 single cab hit a 138, swapped out to Kicker Comp 12's, never got them metered, was much louder.
Same amp 4 Kicker comp 10's 90 Chevy Standard cab hit 127, swapped to 4 JL W1 12's same pressure sound not as clean.

Fixed it one woofer out of phase.

Now to get my CEQ7 fixed and installed to get more Bass out of it. Tune it a little more and going to go see if i can get it metered on my 7 days off in a couple weeks.

Test: Bass From The Crypt, Track: Bass The 13th had the steering wheel shaking.

This is out of 100 Watts. :rofl:

Is that the same box that was in there when I saw your truck?

If it had no woofers, That would be it.

Did some more test, this thing will be crazy once i get through tuning it.

Yea, that's it. That setup should pound once tuned.
Those were the same Bazookas?

Same one's, my friend backed out on buying them.

Hahaha, well I'm glad they worked for you. I thought they did pretty well for a pair of 8's

Those 8's rock harder than i thought hey would.

:lol: Many didn't believe they were Bazookas under the seat. Very effective for quick-installing, plug and play subs.
