Besides the kicker being slighty more powerful, which is overall a better sub? And which is better for daily pounding and SQ?

I never heard an L7, but my M3 has decent SQ and kills the lows

I've loved memphis for years.. Started out with the PRs, and went from there to the mojos.. I've tried the M3s playing around, but never enough to get a good opinion of them.. Can't go wrong with memphis though.

Kicker sucks *** at SQ, believe me, i got 2 fake ones that are loud as fawk but sound like ground-up poopcicles.

The M3 is an overall good sub in all areas? Or its just better than kicker in all areas?

M3 is a great all around daily/street beat sub, that is only slightly quieter than an L7(with same power) but will sound 100x better. L7 is good for SPL only imo.

i agree kicker is not sq focused, but how can you say that if you have "fake" ones? if they're fake, they're not kickers

L7s aren't made for SQ. I'd go with the M3

I have installed L5 and L7 in single and multi-sub arrangements for people over the years as the "square wonders" have evolved. It is very easy to make them loud, but impossible to make them clean, even sealed with polyfill. My "fake" kickers are exact copies, and sound just the same.

Thank you sir.

No digi camera, I wish. See if you can find online pics of Pyle Red Label from 2 years ago. I have the square 12's. Very nice for a Pyle.....sad to say, but very cheap, and I only have 30bucks in the pair, so not too costly if I say so myself.
