Amazon.com Product Description Superiority has always been the guideline behind the award-winning technology of KICKER's square subwoofer family. They've done it for years, but improving on a trendsetting yet affordable product like the Solo-Baric L5 Subwoofer is no easy task.

The Solo-Baric L5 inherits all the same patented technology as the dominant L7 square woofer, with a hot new look and improved design for an even mightier performance.

The cone and basket take on a more macho feel in 2008. Like its ultimate SoloX Subwoofer big brother, the Solo-Baric L5 utilizes SoloKon technology, a vacuum-formed, ultra-rigid design with vented 360-degree back bracing used to push mass quantities of air. A Santoprene surround handles the force of the L5's motor and cone, and a rear foam gasket secures the stamped-steel basket to any given baffle. The logo-bearing steel basket with spring-loaded terminals, a stout magnet, and the logo-bearing protective front gasket also allow the L5 to take on any punishment given.

The L5's motor structure also handles extreme power with high-temp dual voice coils covering a new heat-dispersing, solid pole piece, a poly-cotton semi-progressive spider with perimeter venting built into the spider landing, and long-lasting Spiralead tinsel leads. Altogether it's a square-sub recipe for delivering superior bass.

The four sizes of Solo-Baric L5 are available in 2-Ohm or 4-Ohm DVC and deliver force from sealed- or vented-box applications.
