Which subs would you take?

03' Kicker CVR 12's or
JL W6 12's ?

3 13w7s or 3 12w6s(v2??) ? 3 13w7s wouldnt fit in a TL or A CL, unless if you go sealed, but going with 2 13w7s ported would sound better and would be cheaper.

my vote goes for the 12w6

first of all what subs are you comparing? the whole line in general? they are 2 completely different subs, the JL subs are more SQ while the kicker subs are more SPL. to go out and say that kicker is made better is a joke.
JL > Kicker

JL > Kicker
i said handle wattage not to compare between SQ of both subs, if you talking about SQ subs. there was a ton of difference brand name subs out there make better SQ than JL subs. just to let you know JL wasn't all that.

JL has great audio equipment, but it is over rated. they also have great marketing. I have a kicker L7, in terms of SQ, that's why I'm going with Midbass drivers.

lol. if u got the cash, go with the W7. it will beat any other sub listed here in terms of clean sound quality output.

but choosing from the kicker compVR and W6v1, i'd go with the W6. of course the kicker sub can be made to sound good.

for the price the comp vr's are great subs. If you want a sub that can handle power and be reliable the comps are great. I ran 2 comp vr 12's in a sealed box for 1 year pushing a 600.1 d class rockford mono amp. Sold the stuff to my friend and he has been pushing them for the last year and a half hard with no problems. if you have the money go for the JL 12w6v2, if not get the kickers, you will be happy with them and save a lot of money.
