Any good square subs? Or come back to round?

if you do a compression box you can get very loud and low on very little power as well

I hate how people think you need a bajillion jigawatts to get loud.

if you got a square hole box just buy a peice of wood at lowes/home depot, doesnt have to be a whole sheet, they sell smaller peices, then cut a round hole in it

never been a fan of the square subs or kicker in general. yes they get loud but imo they sound sloppy and distorted... im currently running a sundown sa series as well as a dc audio level 3.. i prefer the dc, clean sounding and gets loud.

I don't know why everyone hates on Kicker all the time. I've had a few squares and I like em. Not the best sounding but they do the job. I'm not talking about paying retail cause that's crazy but if you can get an L5 or L7 off Craigslist for cheap I think they do alright... Certainly not the worst drivers. That's all I'm saying.

If you must go with a square, hit up SPL. He is building some good nasties and has one for sale in the subwoofer for sales.

One of the loudest 2k setups I've ever heard was 2 L7 15s. Would hurt your ears really. This was back in like 05 thou

doenst matter what model it is, they are all junk, I even own 2 l7s

Solo X.

He doesn't have enough room or power to do one properly, however.

thats what i'm thinking.. the sundown wants the same space and hertz so **** it..lol
just to clear things up i might of got a ****** sub. but google kicker square spider or something to that affect.. its a common problem!! wish i knew before hand..

yea thats a little to much. maybe if the L7 was nice to me i might of moved onto the solo but it got that clap..lol

Solo X i'm asuming is a different drive and thats the top of the line. I'm sure they put more into them.
