Why Choose Kicker 46L7T122 Component Car Subwoofer?
Compact Design, Maximum Bass Impact
Unlock powerful low-end performance with dual 2Ω voice coils for flexible wiring and optimal amplifier matching, a square sub design that moves more air for deeper bass than traditional round drivers, and a thin-mount profile just 4-1/8" deep—perfect for tight spaces like under seats, behind panels, or in compact trunks.
Engineered for Deep, Accurate Bass
Experience consistent, powerful low frequencies with a ribbed Santoprene surround that resists heat and stress for smooth, precise cone movement, while a bumped top plate allows extra cone excursion for deeper, more impactful bass without sacrificing performance at high volumes.
Reinforced Design for Consistent, Powerful Bass
Enjoy precise, distortion-free low frequencies with a SoloKon™ cone featuring 360° back bracing that minimizes flex, while the UniPlate solid pole piece and backplate enhance heat dissipation for cooler, more reliable performance under heavy loads.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Will this shallow-mount subwoofer fit under my truck seat?
Many users choose it for under-seat installations because of its shallow mounting depth. Always measure your available space before installation.
- • Why does it sound weak after installation?
Weak bass is often caused by incorrect amplifier settings or an improperly sized enclosure. Check the gain, crossover, and enclosure specifications.
- • Can I use this in a sealed enclosure?
Yes. It is designed to perform well in compact sealed enclosures when built to the recommended specifications.
- • Why is there a rattling noise when the bass gets loud?
Rattling often comes from loose enclosure panels, vehicle trim pieces, or mounting hardware. Inspect the installation before assuming the subwoofer is damaged.
- • Does this require a powerful amplifier?
It performs best with an amplifier that matches its RMS power rating. Using too little or too much power can affect performance.
- • Why does the amplifier go into protection mode when playing bass?
This can happen because of incorrect wiring, low impedance, or amplifier overheating. Verify the wiring configuration and amplifier compatibility.
- • Can I wire the voice coils in different configurations?
Yes. The dual voice coil design allows multiple wiring options depending on your amplifier requirements.
- • Why does the subwoofer smell hot after extended use?
A hot smell can indicate amplifier clipping or excessive power. Reduce the gain and check your system tuning.
- • Can this produce deep bass despite its shallow design?
Yes. Many users choose it because it delivers strong low-frequency performance in limited mounting spaces.
- • Can this subwoofer be mounted in a custom fiberglass enclosure?
Yes. It is commonly used in custom shallow enclosures as long as the enclosure volume meets the recommended specifications.

Big fan of Kicker subs. Had an L5 years back. Right now, I've hooked up the L7 with the Alpine mono amp I copped months ago, and it's doing work. Crafted a custom box for it. This thing pounds when I blast the volume, but it also keeps it real at lower volumes. Perfect for my music vibe.
