I'm thinking about getting a pari of Kick Solo Baric subs. What do you guys think about these subs? Pros and cons? Thanks

Pros: they are a very nice sounding subs that have the ability to go very LOUD!!!! in the right enclosure. They are also different looking from other subs which can make ya install stand out...

Cons: They r ineffecient and requre a big chunk of power to get them going hard which means an outlay on a very expnesive amp (in Australia anywayz :-S), plus some of the ported boxes are quite large....

As always thou u should listen to them and not just take my word for it heheh, at the end of the day u r the one that is going to be listnig to them. Mabe also try to audition some JL w3 or w6's if u r after sq or if u r after spl mabe some DD's or something along those lines... posted_image

I would have to agree with Spec83 on the Pros and Cons. I own a pair of 15'l5 in a ported box that just around 9 cubic ft total. The sub will pound the hell out of you especially if you give them the right amount of power. I would say 600 to 800 rms will do the trick.
