and i should probably say im redoing my system...i have since blown the L7 and would like more sq and a lil more spl. and these subs will be ran with the JBL 1200.1 and each sub will get about 1cubft or maybe a little more in a honda accord if it matters. just thought i would give the info. thanks!

so ive heard the shivas will pound very well, and i can truthfully tell you that the infinity perfects are amazing

both subs are great SQ subs and i think you will be very happy with either, but ive never actually heard a shiva...on the forums people do talk about them being louder... so if you get a chance to hear a shiva check it out, they are few and far between

personal preference: id go with the infinity kappa perfects

The Adire line is where it is at, they have the SQ from heaven, and pound like nothing else. The Shivas are great, but I would prefer the Adire Brahma over them any day, a little more spendy but hey, what do you want...

I would go with the Infinity perfects. The shiva is a good sub too i just think the perfects are a step above.

Performance wise, I have heard MANY people say that the Shiva performs just like the Perfect but at a much lower cost. The Shiva was designed as the ultimate budget sub. Not one dollar was put into it if it didn't improve the performance. It doesn't look like much, but it performs awesome. Don't let the price or the looks fool you.
