[QUOTE="carter1010, post: 6190864, member: 612252"] Sorry if this was stupid, but these are both Kicker L7's, speaker A being one from the year 2000 or, the original, and one from 2008. I thought it was interesting that the 2000 actually had a bit lower resonant frequency than the new one, power handling is identical, and from what I understand, the lower the QTS, the flatter the frequency response, the better the driver. I know its not a big difference, and I am really not a kicker fan at all, but I got a 2000 L7 for free and was checking out how it compared to the 08 model, and from what I can tell, the 2000 seems to be a bit better on paper. It kinda makes sense if you think about inflation in relation to what you pay for a speaker. The only difference is the 08 has about 2 mm more of Xmax, but I knew if I threw that in, everyone would automatically assume that was the better driver because xmax has warped fragile little minds. I mean, its great if a driver can travel far, but there is a lot more to it than that. thanks for your input. [/QUOTE]
