Thanks

I have a 650.4 amp for the doors and plan to put components

If these two choices have met all your other criteria (price, power handling, enclosure size, etc) then go listen to them and pick the one that sounds better. Unfortunately, I nor anyone else can tell you what sounds good to you.




I haven't seen any of these speakers in any stores out here. I actually own one 12" Solo X and it sounds crazy. I doubt if I would find a 15" L7 in a store display in my area. My question is since it's only getting half of it's RMS, is it worth even bothering with them as opposed to some subs that I can achieve max RMS? Kind of like how the CSVT really moves at 4000RPM as opposed to trying to get somewhere at 2000RPM...
