Kickers vs. Kenwood?

[zjay027]

I am trying to choose two new subs to get for my car. I am choosing between the Kicker C124's, the Kicker 07CVR's, or the Kenwood KFC-W3's...I'm looking at 10 inch ones too, not 12's. Not really sure which one is better, I've read good reviews on all three. Anyone have any opinions?

Cash limit and what's your electrical like. Also what amp do you have and what's type of RMS you looking for?

the one that starts with a K

I haven't chosen an amp yet, that's a question I also needed to ask eventually once I figured out which ones were generally received as the best in terms of amount of bass (I want a lot), sound quality, and build quality. And in my situation cash wouldn't be a problem here between these three options.

Anyone have any opinions as to which is the best choice here and an amp that works well with them?

my choice, i've never been a huge fan of kicker, much less kicker comps

but outta those 3 you gave, i'd go with the kenwoods, i had 2 ten kens in my truck which were pretty good, but not the greatest, i've had 2 of the infinitys before which work great for any kind of music and are loud and have great SQ if you ask me

i sell both so i say this from a professional standpoint

if you want better sound get the kenwoods they are good subs if you want to get loud and sound like shit get the kicker they will get loud for you but when you throw lots of power at them to do it the get muddy on lower power they are fine and comparable to the kw on sq but less output
