New member Username: Tt086Post Number: 9 Registered: Jan-07 | does kicker make good subs? i was looking to buy either 2 Kicker 06CVX12-4(1500 watts) or 2 Kicker 07CVR12-4(800 watts)..which would be best and what kind of amp would give either of them a good push? should i use 2 mono amps or one 2 channel amp? |
Silver Member Username: Livin_loud18 of Love Fi Audio Post Number: 862 Registered: Jan-06 | use mono amps for subs, and stereo for components. kickers subs aren't the greatest, but aren't bad... word is the cvx is pretty decent though. try and use a kicker amp if possible |
Bronze Member Username: J_c_wheeler8Columbus, IN United States Post Number: 23 Registered: May-06 | I have 2 Kicker CVR's, and a New ZX450.2 AMP. Get a 2 channel amp, I paid $190.25 for my amp, and i pounds. I actually blew 1 sub, so I gotta decide if i wanna replace the one, or upgrade to Thunder 8000's, or JLW3's.. |
Silver Member Username: Teddy21Ann Arbor, MI USA Post Number: 434 Registered: Feb-06 | Kicker subs are ok but there are some better subs out there for the money, on the other hand, kicker amps are very good but kinda pricey. Always get a mono amp for subwoofers! This is because the "D class" amp is made for higher wattage and lower current draw from your charging system. A AB class amp (usually mutil channel amps) uses more current to run but is generally used for components. You only need one amp by the way, just wire the subwoofers together to the right ohms you want. here go to the link below and you can see how to wire the subs together. http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard.asp |

Bronze Member Username: BasssquaredPost Number: 68 Registered: Nov-06 | so what about the KICKERS solo X is there nething that can compete with that 18" giant cus the only thing ican think of is the 22"mtx jackhammer |
Silver Member Username: TanmanfoshoFi SSD15 Wangers Post Number: 598 Registered: Nov-06 | i could easily name 5 subs without thinkin that could compete with the solo X. BTL, XXX, 9918, Mag, HD3 and jackhammer ewwwww |
Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 805 Registered: Aug-06 | biggs I love ur enthusiasm but to be honest the solo x will smash on a hd3 btl xxx and a mag...and the jackhammer is only named that for one reason, people don't like the x's cause its hugely obnoxious bass nothing but the dd 9918 will hang |

Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 2997 Registered: Feb-06 | not saying l7's don't get loud, they do. but 2 l5's beating a pair of w7's with more power and ported in a spl box, yep, complete bs, don't care what you say or what anyone else says. and not because i love the w7 cause i really don't, it's just i know what a complete piece of shi_t the l5 is. |
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 178 Registered: Dec-06 | Just because the L7 gets loud, doesn't mean it's a quality product. Trust me, I own one. It's loud, but sounds like SH!T. |

Post Number: 2998 Registered: Feb-06 | 2 12" l5's with 500wrms each, sealed vs. 2 12" w7's with 1000wrms each, ported think it's safe to say who won here. and i'm not saying thier weak as_s subs cause thier yours, it's just cause they suck.period. personally i don't know anyone that would disagree, and i'm sure not to may on this forum would disagree. |
Bronze Member Username: Solobaric4lifeSeminole, Al United states Post Number: 13 Registered: Jan-07 | yea im eather up gradin l8tr to 2 w7 13 and kicker zx2500.1 or im might get 2 more solo's and have 4 then with a little over double the power caus i see wat just 2 does i cant turn it all the way up on my cd player cause it skips constantly and its a 200$ jvc but even with the 2 l5's i do window flexin my wiper bout jump off the front lol |

Silver Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 128 Registered: Mar-06 | he had 2 w7s in an SPL setup???......WHY? thats a total waste of thousand dollar amps and nearly thousand dollar new w7s....BTW if they were 13w7s, not in a million years could dual L5's beat it....Also, I've never seen JL advertise "Livin' Loud" so it's perfectly acceptable that two SPL L7's can get LOUDER than W7s...although i did catch that the W7s sounded better |
