i am looking to purchase 2 12's and i was looking at re audio and kicker i like fi audio but its out of my price range, so i was wondering what will be louder and make someone say holy s**t thats loud lol, something where you can hear me from a distance

and the price difference is a little over 100 dollars is re audio worth it

How many subs, what size of subs, sealed or ported, how many watts can you give them? So many questions need to be answered first.

What RE's and What Kickers?? What type of power and at what ohm load... how big of a box do you plan to build?!

first question is what re sub are you comparing to the kicker?

i said in the post 2 12's ported and i will run them at w/e their max rms is so kicker=1500rms and re audio=2000rms

kicker 12" l7

re audio sx 12"

I'd personally go with the SX as I never liked the sound of the L7

I would go with the SX's....I like the way they sound better than kicker....

Im sure there will be many to disagree....Im not a big L7 fan

I would do cvx's before l7's any day. I don't like the sound of the square subs plus I think they just look kind of gay.

so....how are SX's in your price range but some Fi BL's aren't

Oh hey, you live fairly close

I say SX and not cause i have 2 of the either!!! Just cause i hate L7

well only thing with the l7 i figured it would be louder because its a square sub so there is a little more cone area so a 12 is almost like a round 15

2 kickers new i am looking from 350-400

2 re audio sx new is 450-480

2 fi audio bl new is 520

and the fi audio btl is too much money for me

also would the fi ssd 12" sub be louder than the l7

so what do you guys suggest

i want something with good sq but something that is loud and can be heard from a good distance

also i figured i would let you guys know i dont plan on upgrading my alternator

but i would do the big 3 if nessearry i have a f150 with the biggest battery possible so what should i pick out of those subs
