Nope. they Didnt replace them. they are just gone.I'm sure they replaced them with something equally, if not better made. I know they're selling that beast 10k watt amp now, and the L7 was completely re-designed. Kicker ain't dumb. Wouldn't stop a line of products unless they've got something that'll take it's place and sell.
true, there just aren't as many 'tweakers' as there once were. You could look at a kid, explain the DSP functionality, slopes, crossovers,etc and he'd look at you like "WTF you just say?":crap:....and you could show him a ZX1500.1, comparing to the SX1250.1 and all he would see is power, a couple knobs, less headache.My guess is, there just wasn't a market for 'em.
