    I have four kicker s8l72 and a Hifonics txi7508 and wanted to figure out how to wire them up to get the most power out them using all 4 subs and nd another using 2 sometimes I take out 2woofers for trunk space thanks in advance

    here are the specs for your Hifonics amp:

    # RMS Power Rating:

    * 4 ohms: 325 watts x 1 chan.
    * 2 ohms: 500 watts x 1 chan.
    * 1 ohm: 750 watts x 1 chan.

    now, your amp isn't enough to push the L7's but it will do. your going to have to wire the subs into a 1ohm impedance so you'll be at 1ohm or 750watts.

    you can do so by wiring them like this:

    or if you'll only use two of the subs then you can only do so at a 2ohm load. If you have the space though and you don't want to add another amp then i'd say stick with all 4, more cone area would equal more bass! :)

    750 watts to 4 8's is a good amount of power. im running 500+ watts to my 8's and its loud.

    I'd run the subs off the hifonics and use the JL for your mids and highs.
