has anybody had any problems with their solobarics???

 

No problems yet and been installing them and sellingthem for a year at C.C. and havent had any comback with problems. What type of problem you having.

 

i havent even got my second one in nor my amp. i was looking around where i live before i finally order. and a guy was telling me that kicker is no good. that u are just buying the name. he had other subs and amps he was tryin to sell me. like hifonics pbx and power acoustik. i have heard of pbx they are decent but im not sure about the other two. although i have smelled an L5 at circuit city but i figured hey its an L5 or that hey was putting too much power into it without sending a good clean signal. but he did sell one thing that i liked and that was alphasonik.

 

at first i didnt like em cuzz it was like the wetter brand lol....but then my bro got some of those square l7 and wholy crap were they hela crazy ..he had 1,000 watts to each one .. i can hear him down the dam street ,,,,,he never had any problems...id recomend them any day ....i really like fosgate as well i have one 12 and its really nice....any name brand such as jl audio.fostgate,kicker,will get the job done .....they have good reps and even though they cost alot you will see why...dont waste your time on a leeser know brand un less ya have heard them or know someomone who had them... like crossfire its pretty dam good....my first sub was a crossfire they really came uo since then...

 

well the thing is that i heard the hifonic square sub up close its sounded ok but from what i remember the last time i was close to an L5 it was seriously loud. i mean it would be nice to get something that is at a cheaper price but theres no telling how it will perform. i know kicker didnt get this far up by putting bulls*it out there on the market. but if i dont find a good price for my memphis ill just get the alphasonik. that was my first choice for an amp. i have heard good things about alphasonik and alot of very good things about memphis they are supposed to be the best but im thinkin bout both of those as my amps. im not quite sure. but ill post to let yall know soon.

 

Kicker is an A++ Company and i stand behind them and there product 100%. Electronics go bad, they are man made and used by people or abused by people i should say, so things do go bad over time and with harsh abuse to them. But if i had the choice i would buy kicker or JL audio, and kicker is abit cheaper in price because it has gone mainstream now. Thats just my 2 cents....

 

I have two 10 kicker L7 and i think that they are best subs that i have ever owned. my brother has 2 JL w7's in his truck and he can't believe how good the l7's sound

 

im guessing tha guy that i was talkin to about the subs just wanted me to buy some of his subs instead. its all good though.

 

the kicker L5-L7's do get hella loud, but they take too much effort to make them sound good...IMO

 

Who ever said kicker was expensive is stu_id! Kickers are not expensive and sound the best for the buck. I've heard the 15" L7, for $300 you can't go wrong, compared to the alpine x (witch I owned) and the jlw7. Go to a sterio shop where the employees are not on commision, they will tell you the trueth. I also had an alphasonic 800series and it was not that great either. As far as amps, that's where the bill counts. Your beat is going to sound as great as your amp is. It makes a world of difference and consider a bass cap.

 

Capacitors are widely misused...only gain you can expect is a little more stable (read: less-fluctuatung) voltage at low/normal listening volumes... maybe some noise filtering... it's not going to keep your lights from dimming like many people think...
