YOUR OBVISOULY AN IDIOT. where to start. first off, if u want to show up jl, you would compare the kicker solo x sub. that sub is good at best. thats it. IN MY OPINION AND MOST PEOPLES. kicker is ONLY good when u have little to no money on subs, and thats when u buy a kicker comp or comp vr. Or if u need decent amps, kicker amps are very reliable and good looking if u ask me. But in 2005 kicker realesed a new look on there comps and comp vr's which make them look very undesirable and look like somen an alien made. very ugly subwoofer. These subs are good subs for the price no doubt. I have owned them and currently have to kicker comp vr 15's. Old school models there best ones they ever made.


Next off since your using the l7's ill include l5's in this as well cause there is nominal difference in there poor performance. First of all, these subs are square, the pos to this is that it has more surface area, THATS IT! The negs are that it has stress points in the surround making it more vulnerable to tearing. Another neg in being square is that it restricts its potential xmax.

People only but kicker because Cc now sells them and these subs are cheap and people are told they are good, by people who dont know anyhting about car audio.

Kicker l5 and l7's get loud and sound SH*TTTTTTY AS H3LLL doing it, they are HORRIBLE SQ subs.

If you were interested in finding someone to compete with, you can take your 2 l7's and ill take 2 jl 13.5 w7's and stomp you on your a$$, h3ll if u want ill take my single 15 i have against you, the only reason JL does not beat kicker is because of the cost, but i guarantee you, if i had jl it would last a heck of alot longer than your kickers. but sorry i know of better things then JL, and i wouldnt waste 300 bucks on just the name.

Thank you for taking some time up in my comp class to prove how idiotic you are being.

Honestly, what good is 179 dB? Can you listen to that volume? No, it would burst your eardrums in a split second. Plus, how much life are you detracting from your car with SPL numbers like that? you're litterally rattling your car to pieces, and for what? a trophy??? morons, all of you. speakers were invented to reproduce musical recordings as accurately as possible. translation: sound quality. I will never understand you bass-heads... :P

Ya, as soon as I get my Kappa Perfects installed, I'll probably be the same way!

...It's kinda hard to be a basshead when all you've got is 4 components...lol!!

I have to agree with Subfanatic on this, Kickers are good but not that good. As for the the reply, did it have to be that personal and harsh?

there are a lot of brands out there that would would wipe the floor with kickers. and if you got a 170db I think not, unless you added two runs together.

just out of interest what are you powering them with and what enclosure have u got them in and what car?

JL's I think are better than kickers.

as for the 10" sub, that must have been in a trnsmission enclosure.

All these numbers been thrown about, someone is gonna come on here and say they got 200db with their 6 x 9's lol

I think all 'idiot-children' who drive around in their $10 rustbuckets with loud music blasting and thumping for everyone to hear within a 200yard radius because they think it will make them look cool, should grow up and stop being stupid idiots.

Oh BTW......this thread is in the Home audio forum, so take your conversation elsewhere there where you and the rest of the 'children' can talk about your car-subwoofers.

Paul, you say that ALOT, and sorry, but nooone is going to listen to you lol, i would but if i answer the questions about car audio over here you should be ok lol. But also i do have a 10 doller rustbucket lol, but im hitting 146db but bthanks to sound deadening i cant be heard from far away

Dino-on the reply I DID mean to be that harsh lol, and the reason for it is because he came on ehre amde a stupid comment that had no point to be here and intended to just end this thread with a single reply because he didnt really want and argument, but he was just talking smack for no reason, also i just noticed somen, he said the l7s peaked out, they dont really have great xmax thanks to there square design. and 2 15 l7s COULD NEVER get past 155 in my opinion, i would LOVE to see this, and IT, if your hitting this high of numbers, its somewhere on the web. SHOW ME!

Yea, I realize they wont listen. At least I dont post in the AUTO forum to create discussions about HT.

Maybe I should go over the to AUTO forum to start a debate about which is the most "kickin" bigscreen DLP?

HEH

Subs that you seem to watn sound like sql subs, so that would be, RE x.x.x, RE sx, Eclipse TI, AA Avalanch, DD 3500 series, DD 9500 Series, ummm there are alot lol just the top of the name,also subfreak, RF makes a louder sub than MTX Kicker or JL makes, its there Team RF sub, they are nuts. JL is NOT an spl driver, MTXs 9500 tries to be but is beat by the w7, and KIcker solo x is complete garbage,. fopr spl go eclipse ti pro, RE mt, Team RF, DD 9900 seires or 9500 series

a solo x 18 is the best spl sub ever made you cant name one better. the DD can keep up with is but thats the only one, mtx is not a good sub compant sont even mention the 9500 it isn't even the best sub they make

Do hope you use the ear-plugs as 170.5db SPL is WOW LOUD the test for this last for a few minutes doesn't it

Is that how the judges, judge the best or the loudest, until the next time around then?
