That's disappointing that Polk would even publish the 25mm number. I'm sure other manufacturers do the same, but its still shady. I guess I should be happy they at least published the linear number, as well.

I have Kickers now and I love them.


I had some Rockford and Crossfires in the past. Can't complain about any of them.

girls dont hear things as good as guys, something about the hunter within us... or im just a dumb sexist bastard that hates kickers


Yeah i am now a bit disappointed with my xmax which is pretty fargin low, but they still sound good and i still occassionally get compliments so im fine with them for now.

I'll have to say im seriously considering going with either crossfire or stick with all polk or something. Going to probably sell these amps once i get enough money to buy some new ones... going to go for SQ instead of SPL perhaps... shit anyone can fart out a one note wonder and rattle a bit but i was really impressed by how toby's ... uhh whatever it was with the beautiful IB in it sounded. I think i just find more application in SQ.

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

not to be a dick, but you must not have an ear for music.. which is fine, makes buying audio a hell of alot cheaper for you .. but fosgate and kicker are for sure not known to be clean sounding subs.

thats good, at least we hear opinions, then i get to shoot them down if its kicker =D.

But yeah its all personal preference; and hey if you cant tell the difference between a kicker L7 and a Polk SR or something equally high quality, then hey, all the power to you, more power for ya then!

but i just find my ears picky, which is starting to get a little aggravated with my system, it sounds great at low(er) volumes right now, not getting to aggressive, but i just loved Toby's setup so much they're just jealous right now! haha. I want to really go into something qualitywise as that, i want people to get in the car and instead of say "WHAT DAN< WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SAY!?#!@?!" they can go "oh my FREAKIN gosh, its like the person singing is right to my left and the dude is playing at my right!!!!! This is bitchin'!" (cough, remember that toby? haha)

yeah SQ is gonna be my friend in the future, i've played loud enough and decided its probably not really for me.

Don't let the little men behind the curtain scare you off. Everyone's .02 is welcome.

How do you like that thing? They have a package deal on their site, 289 for the 13kv.2 and the nine.2 amp together which seems pretty good to me.

i haven't had a chance to hook it up. on paper it looks unstoppable for the price... but that doesn't really mean much in car. my funds for the rest of the system shriveled and died long ago. i gave them a viking funeral in march, actually. hopefully i'll hit the lotto so i can make that lonely sub sitting in my closet into something useful.
