RL-P, L7, SI Mag?

[YZmoto125 10+ year member]

After hearing the new prices on the REs, Ive narrowed it down to 3 options for subs.

15" RL-P with 700 watts RMS

15" L7 with 1000 watts RMS

15" SI Mag with 1000 watts RMS

The RL-P will be the cheapest, I can get 2 RL-Ps for the price of 1 Mag or L7. The SI Mag fits my enclosure space perfect and I have heard it is great SQ and really loud. And the kickers are a pretty common brand that I can get for cheap off of ebay with a warrenty, but not the greatest SQ, but they are loud.

Here are the questions that I have and it would be awesome if you guys could rate them 1-3 on these questions-

Which is the best SQ?

Loudest?

And what order would you want to have them in?

Then finally after that, I want to find a good amp for them. What do you guys think of the kicker amps? I really like the remote bass control so I can mount that up on my dash because I wont have the greatest control of my sub because I am going to keep the stock deck(I have a nav screen that I dont want to replace). Also, there are a lot of those on ebay cheap with warrentys. Or if they arent very good quality, some specific amp suggestions would be awesome.

basically to me it comes down to this....

Mag...Great SQ and Great output

RL-p...Great SQ and a little less output than a mag, but still gets very loud

L7...Probably the least SQ out of the bunch, but has the most output

Personally I would pick the Rl-p as my first choice based on price and it being so close to the mag is sq and not far behind in output, next would be the mag, and finally the L7

I love my mag, but I agree with the above. Just remember this is our opinons //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

although i have not hear a RL-p i would love too sometime soon. i have owned 2 12" L7's and now i have 2 12" mags but only one hooked up right now. the kickers were extremely loud but my sq wasnt all that great. the mag i have right now sounds amazing with only a very small amount of power to it.

so i would choose Mag, Kicker, Rl-p(but this doesnt count because i havent heard it)

as for kicker amps they are very good but do not use a remote bass/gain ever, unless you actually know how to use one because it just messes with everything which will lead to blown equipment. just set the amp correctly and never worry about it again.
