not too many people run hifonics subs. an L7 is a capable spl woofer so i don't think this sub would put an L7 to shame.

now so many variables go along with this, mainly enclosure being the biggest

so in optimal settings, i don't think this hifonics sub would put an L7 to shame splwise. i know you're not talking about sq wise cause who cares about sq anymore on this board?

now who told you an atlas would put an L7 to shame?

Buy the Atlas and then tell us how it sounds. Or at least how loud it gets.

Has anyone on this board ever used one?

polecat, when will the review be published ? i started this thread like 6 months ago on termpro, and im pretty sure its soon. a head to head square off.

I heard the same thing. I hear the HiFonics square sub is close to the output as the Solo X. And this is from a guy sponsored by Kicker AND Maxxsonics.

I've heard good things about the HiFonics

So I guess either or....

Weird, cuz last time I looked at the HiFonics square subs they simply looked like a cheap copy of Kicker's L series drivers. IIRC they didn't even have the accordian corners on the surround.

I seriously doubt the HF Atlas has anything on a Solo X's output capabilities.

Since Kicker patented that I would think that Maxxsonics would open themselves up to potential litigation if it did //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

they didn't use the ribbed corners, which we have the patent on.

HiFonics has 2 square subs, a shitty one, and an awesome one, if memory serves me right.

i heard the atlas was supposed to sound descent, but I doubt it comes close to the output capablities of the kicker..

 

[mannyb18b]

maybe, maybe not. someone find out!
