Do people only like 2 talk about Kicker's L7 & never tried out any of the above ??? |

Gold Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 7940 Registered: Dec-03 | Atomic - fairly new, relatively speaking, but heard some good things. CV Strokers pro - SPL sub strictly. Better subs out there for the money and CV's build quality isn't what it was fifteen years ago. MMATS Juggernaut or Dreadnaut - good subs. rather expensive, and most people on here are students, kids, or just flat broke. competitors don't need to discuss these subs. we already know them intimately. Hifonics XX3215 - don't like hifonics Pioneer Premier's TS-W5000SPL - not bad subs Orion's H2 - not as good as other subs at the same price. Ma Audio HK 15X2 - mobile authority blows goats. Just look at who owns them for proof. Crossfire - meh.. not one of my favorites. for the record I can't stand the solobaric square subs either.. not the L5, L7, or solo X subs. they all have design and reliability issues. the Comp and CompVR subs from Kicker are much better products. |

master ace Unregistered guest | whys kicker so bad, if the guy want spl and cheap kicker the way to go as for as cheap spl sub go the only thing that sucks about them in my book is when i had them i could not just swap them out and keep old box had to get hole new one, becouse of the square shape |
Bronze Member Username: RovinPost Number: 15 Registered: Jul-05 | from what i read here it mean lower rms Kicker subs play alot cleaner - better sql subs ? I have recently bought 2 12inch Pioneers TS-W306DVC 400rms each & built a ported fac spec box & 4 that $ they perform really good - i wuz surprised . Any o U guys tried pioneers ??? |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 7977 Registered: Dec-03 | kicker - lead slap, lead separation, surround failure, cone failure ma audio - who cares how loud it is if it sounds like crap? if all I wanted to hear was noise, I'd go listen to air hammers at a construction site. |

Silver Member Username: Sploosh56Ohio Post Number: 730 Registered: May-04 | haha that was funny glass. a kid in my town jsut blew $650 on a 15" American Bass VFL competition sub. I nearly killed him over it lol! What's funny is I had been telling him to go with a brahma or a XXX but he didn't listen. Now he tells me he wish he would have listend. The guy who sold him the sub said if he can blow it he can have his money back. We've hooked it up to two 1500 watts hifonics and distorted the hell out of it and it won't blow. A wall socket is next. The sub in both of our opinions sounds like crap but the sum b*tch sure does take a beating. |
