Yes. You will probably notice a difference. They are different woofers with different characteristics. Having said that, will you like the difference? Who knows - depends on what kind of sound you're going for, the application, your car, and the music.

Well 1st, you're talking about 2 very different subs so yes, you will notice a difference. They require different amounts of space too. If going sealed, the L7 needs .88-2.0 cuft. and the CVR needs 1.0-4.6cuft. That's a pretty big difference in my book. Also the CVR needs 400W RMS which apparently it's getting, while the L7 needs 750 W RMS to make it bounce. You obviously have enough amp w/ the Punch to power the L7. If you've ever listened to a L7 next to a CRV you wouldn't even be asking this question-the L7 is a SPL monster!
