I'd put my money on the Kicker 15" L7. Just because of the numbers.

But I'd say it all depends on what size amp you are pushing them with. The Kicker requires about 1000 watts RMS per sub where the JL Audio has an optimum output at about 750 per sub.

all depends on the setup.    the w7 is a SQ sub, but it does get loud. The L7 is a almost pure SPL sub. I would never run them for daily driving, but that is my personal taste.   Also I am not a fan of the 15l7,   the 12L7 is the way to go if you plan to compete with I system, they are amazing.

My girlfriend is running in USACi this year and is doing 149.9at shows in a civic coupe using 2 amps rated at 250@4ohm
using 2 12"L7's

All the stock classes in Usaci, the people leading the way are using L7's Kicker has made a sub to set the bar with.
