JL or Kicker sub?
 

Which do ya'll prefer; JL10w3v3 or Kicker S10L7? Please stay specific w/these two exact models. TIA

never had the kicker, but I do have a pair of the jl 10w3's rockin under the rear seat, powered by the Jl 500/1 mono amp.

Do you like them? What box are you using?

Yeah I'd like to know to... I have the same subs in a Probox, it looks and fits great but per the specs there is not enough airspace for each sub and the box isn't built of a thick enough material. Because of this they don't sound as good as I know they should.

see, I cheaped out at first, got the mtx thunderform box w subs, I wasn't happy enough with them so sold the subs, kept the box, it is the injection moulded thunderform box. Not quite solid enough , but they hit good ! If I had the rocks to do it over, I would have asked for in truck demo, trying both 10's and 12's, with the 500 and the 1000 watt amp, do a real test and settle it that way. Thinking of how much time I spend in my truck, and how I like to listen, lord knows I can't crank it up that loud at home, I would have been less reluctant to spend bigger bux. spend it once is a lot better than cheapin out, and then buyin again.

Do yourself a favor and check out the MTX TR55 in 10 inch.

I was all set to grab a set of JL's for my truck and my installer who happens to sell both talked me into the MTX's and they sound great and cost less.

I have the 12w3's and they POUND!

i had a 10w3 in a homade box that fired downward and fit behind the back seat of a jeep tj. had a bazooka 500/1 mono channel amp and it sounded great.

I have a single JL sub and love it.

I put JL's in my Blazer I had years ago, I miss the subs more than the blazer.

JL all the way IMO.
