Default Solo-barics?

For all the people with the new L7's, how do you like them? I was thinking about getting 2 12"s but wanted to wait to save up enough money for new HU,amps and door speakers. So I can install everything at the same time. What amp or amps should I run with 2 12" L7s? Will it rattle the hatch area a lot? Thanks in Advance!

I have 2 L7 12's and absolutly love them. They don't really make the car rattle too much, but that's definately not from the lack of bass. I am running a Concept D1000 amp on them with 1000w rms each.
