I tell you what, you take your Kicker (borrow one off your mates even), get a 2000wrms amp, strap her on, and ill get my 12W6v2 and hook up a US AMPS 4000X (4000wrms into 4ohm), and we shall see what lasts longer. Fool. hahaha mate, relax, take a deep breath, feel better? now the W6 is a great sub, but you cannot go on saying kicker is **** etc etc, thats your opinion mate, people here need facts.. i used to sell and use kicker gear, 15" L7.. have you heard of the soloX? tested as one the the worlds best subs, for SQ and SPL.. i suggest trying out this gear b4 baggin it! seriously the low end of kickers products may not be the best, but you go and listen to the top end..

VL commy, i was considering a similar design if i keep my VL, just wondering whats the legalities in driving round with an enclosure instead of a backseat>? does it just have to be mounted properly?

well to do it legally i believe you have to completely remove the rear seatbelts and have the car re-registered as a 2 seater car. Mine is not like this daily, only have it setup like that for comps.

Kicker L5's and L7's r good but Jl are just as good, and as for kicker comps and pissy little cheap crap, if u had a certificate in car audio u should know better than to buy cheap crap.
