No simple answer. It depends on how they are installed. All three are very good woofers so you can pretty much do what you want with them.

IM going to have to go with the Brahma on this one, because it has more excursion and is alot cleaner at it , it should hit tighter and harder. But to truely tell you would need to test each sub in its best box with a meter to be shure.

Dyohn is right. This isn't a simple answer. First, decide how much space you have. Second, determine what your goals are. Third, determine what your budget is. Fourth, start looking at possible sub and box combinations within your space, goals, and budget requirements. Model the results. Talk to people that have experience with the subwoofers you are considering.

No one is going to give you an answer to "which one would bump harder."

I also get a headache when reading those posts. Bigsingh, we realize that text messaging is a bigger deal in the UK than in the states, but on forums such as the12volt, texting shorthand is annoying to read.

"only" 7 cu ft? You can work up an ideal enclosure for the L7 with that (sealed). You're good with box modeling so you should have a good setup. Keys to success: at least 1" walls and cross-bracing.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

If you are looking for "bump" and have that much space, I would go with a 15" Brahma ported.

Telling you that we don't like shorthand is in no way insulting you. We like you. We don't like shorthand. Simple distinction, don't you think?
