let us know what amp you got. Would a 15 work for you? If it does look into the RE SX.

Repost...

I own a 2007 Dodge Charger and I am having a new audio system installed today. I am trying to decide between the Kicker CVX 12" subwoofer and the RE Audio SX 12" subwoofer, both subs are 4 ohms.

The Kicker subwoofer is similar to the L7 Solobaric, which I have installed in my Ford Expedition. And in my opinion it's the best subwoofer I have ever owned. I have had it for 3 years and never had a problem, still hits like new.

But I was thinking of going with the Kicker CVX 12" round in my car to get better overall sound quality (Tighter, crisper and cleaner) It is enclosed in a ported box, as is the RE Audio subwoofer.

What is the reputation for the RE Audio SX 12"? Why would it be better in your opinion than the Kicker? It's obvious that it has a louder RMS, but what about sound quality? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Other equipment:

*Kenwood KVT-514 In-Dash Multimedia DVD Receiver With 7" Motorized Screen

*RE Audio 1" Car Silk Dome Tweeters mounted at the top of my front door panels

*RE Audio 6x9's 3- way in front door panels (100 Watt RMS each...200 Watt RMS per pair

*RE Audio 6x9's 3-way in rear window shelf/tray (100 Watt RMS each...200 Watt RMS per pair.

MB Quart RAB1450 1 Channel 450 Watt Amp for Mids/Highs.

Autotek Super Sport 1 Channel 1500 Watt Amp for subwoofer.

Thanks for all of your help. I am so appreciative of your session schooling me in your previous posts. I've officially been served...LOL. j/k FYI: I posted my original question via my Blackberry cell phone if you care to know.

Thank you to all...i would be glad to reciprocate to your posts, too.

Do you RE you won't regret it.. just get a box built to specs

.. but i mean you have room to run the 15".. why not do that?

i have a RE SE 12", which is basically just a step down from the SX, and its sound quality is amazing, and it gets loud too. i had a kicker cvr, which i would think would somewhat be like the cvx, and it does real good on the higher and mid bass, but doesnt even come close to the RE in the lows. so it depends i guess on what exactly you are looking for

yea round kickers hate lows but they will kill mids and upper. Lows in my opinion are wayyy better than gettin upper freq but i like the jaw rattling bass lol
