[QUOTE="hiloracerboy84, post: 306694, member: 541523"] ok, i know ive been asking a lot of ?'s lately, but i just want to make a decision on my next sub, and i dont wanna screw it up and have to sell the sub in a few weeks...ive been running a Kicker L7 in a 2.75cu ported box and hit 147.4 w/ a jbl1200 hooked up to it...so now its time to retire the kicker and step it up...ive looked into the idmax, but people say theres lots of problems...the same goes for the elemental designs a series subs...both seem great and have huge...HUGE xmax specs...both in the mid-high 20's (mm's)! while the kicker has a square cone, and therefore larger cone area, its xmax is only 13.2mm i believe... SO by taking these specs into consideration...shouldnt the idmax and ed a series..(and adire audio brahmas-which im seriously considering...besides the killer price) all blow the kicker out of the water when it comes to spl? they should, theoretically be able to push almost twice as much air, because their throw is alost twice the kickers'...so do you think that these subs would kill the L7 12 in spl (w/ spec boxes or bigger possibly, and power that meets the rating of the sub)? i think they should, but i just need confirmation on this...cuz i dont wanna go out and spend some 350-450 bucks on a sub just to be disappointed thanks [/QUOTE]
