yes, id say they are close. it will come down to the instalation. ive seen some L7 installs that did not impress me... and ive seen some that did.... id get the arsenal wayyyy before the L7 though. i think everyone would agree but chauncy... haha just bustin ya chops chauncy.

i would buy something that would last longer and sound better, even if it wasn't as loud, any day of the week.

while we're on AA, what do u think would be a better setup:
1) A8000t/ single 12" arsenal?
2) A8000t/ 2 12" assassins?
3) A8000t/ single 10" Kicker L7 (lol, thats what i got now... not so loud...)

plus im kinda set on having a ported box but im open to recommendations, im not so picky about SQ, as long as that $hit gets loud...
oh yeah, its going in a '91 Prelude (ridiculously small trunk...)

why's that? it does have 20.5mm Xmax, but 2 assassins with 15.5 each? i think that the 2 12's would move more air... maybe im wrong but it makes more sense to me. please explain

AIRSPACE.....a box for 2 12's would take up more room in your prelude trunk than a box for 1 12.

.....5mm of Xmax can make a difference too. :-)

but thats only one sub with 5mm more... wouldnt having 2 assassins mean 31+ total Xmax compared to 20.5 for a single arsenal? do you think that having the 2 assassins in a sealed box would be better than having them in a ported box with the space i have?

not sure what size box is needed for either...just going on General knowledge...

i would rather have 1 t.o.l. sub than 2 subs of a lesser caliber....NOT to say they aren't any good...ppl like to take offense to almost anything these days. lol

i would personally get the 12" Arsenal in a ported box and call it a day.:-)

actually, i read it as 2 12 inch arsenals lol. and i was like thats pointless to get 2 and give them 400w each. so the 2 assasins vs the 1 arsenal would be a great matchup... the 2 assasins should win due to SA though.
