The sound is great, and the space required is perfect for my car because I have enough space to carry other things.
Perfect for my car and takes up little space, which made me very happy.
Ideal size for car use. It is very compact and will look beautiful.
A heavy sub, so you need to ask for help to install it.
The mount does not cope with the weight of the sub, so I just put it in the trunk.

Fitted perfectly on my door, very pleased with this purchase.
The weight is not bad among analogues. Not too heavy so you can handle it alone during installation.
Excellent sound that makes me happy every day. I am also impressed with its compact size.
The bass is very decent for this size. I recommend this sub.

What customers say about "Audio"

Kicker L7S (44L7S102) Solo-Baric 10 Inch 1200 Watt 2 Ohm DVC Square Subwoofer

I love these subwoofers. There are better subs out there but these have great sound.
Great hard hitting deep bass! Wired it down to 2 ohms and I'm loving it!
This one woofer beats the two that I had hands down. My teeth shake and I get a backbreaking amount of Bass hittin' when she is only halfway pumping!
This sub is exceptional for delivering strong mid to low frequency bass. It hits hard and is perfect for me when I listen to Rap, Hip Hop, Dub Step etc.
When the sub is playing quietly, you get very strong distortion at low frequencies.

Kicker L7R (45L7R152) 15-Inch (38cm) Subwoofer, Dual Voice Coil, 2-Ohm

Kicker L7 was my second sub after upgrading from a weak sub. And it might not be the best sounding sub but man it is loud.
I know for a fact im not even pushing it to its max and my car rattles like crazy.
Excellent bass response, clean sound, and loud! Hits hard and flexes like crazy, the suspension still feels tight.
I was surprised by the spl but when u run it on lower setting the sq is amazing.
Great sub. Very powerful and you'll def only need one unless you're looking to be "that guy" that goes around shaking houses.

What customers say about "Features"

Kicker L7S (44L7S102) Solo-Baric 10 Inch 1200 Watt 2 Ohm DVC Square Subwoofer

Amazing subwoofers a real step up from round by far paired with a cx1200 at 4 ohms thing really shakes up my Silverado.
Love this speaker! Has alot of power, clear and at a good price.
I like UniPlate Black Plate feature. Plus Perimeter Venting For Excellent Thermal Management is amazing.
The construction is sturdy and reliable so I don't think it will fall apart with strong bass.
Unfortunately, it does not provide controls. And I would like to customize it for myself.

Kicker L7R (45L7R152) 15-Inch (38cm) Subwoofer, Dual Voice Coil, 2-Ohm

The UniPlate™ pole piece and backplate were designed to manage heat. They wick it away from the internal components of the subwoofer and dissipate it into the surrounding atmosphere.
I installed this speaker with my 750 watt kicker amp and wow this speakers bang the crap out of my car it's soooooo freaking loud!
This subs is the best of the best I really recommend this subs to everyone you are not gonna be disappointed of this subs.
The construction does not look sturdy, which is alarming. Constantly something falls out of him.
After a while, it started to get hot, so you have to turn it off after a while and blow it to cool.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Kicker L7S (44L7S102) Solo-Baric 10 Inch 1200 Watt 2 Ohm DVC Square Subwoofer

Easy to install and also easy to connect with two wires.
Compatible with all receivers so you can not worry about connecting it.
It was the easiest installation and connection in my life. It took 10 minutes and everything worked perfectly.
The sound is amazing and I hardly hear distortion. Thanks to the instructions, it is easy to understand what and where to connect.
Unfortunately, you have no choice how to connect this sub.

Kicker L7R (45L7R152) 15-Inch (38cm) Subwoofer, Dual Voice Coil, 2-Ohm

I love these speakers! Just hooked my system up and it pounds! Shakes my whole vehicle.
Connected to an 1800w Kenwood amp pushing 4 Ohms and it jiggles the cartilage in my nose.
Just make sure you got it hooked up to a good quality amp, and fuse everything and it will show a real sound. Connects to all Kicker amplifiers.
Only other suggestion I would have for Kicker would have been to use screw down terminals instead of the spring loaded terminals.
The connectors for connection the inconveniently located, cables are constantly confused and you need to pull one through the entire subwoofer.
