Just so everyone knows.

Kicker does changes to their subs every 2 years.

2000-2001 L7- Black cone with red and greyish silver logo.

2002-2003 L7- Greyish silver cone with red and greyish silver logo.

2004-2005 L7- Silver cone with blue logo

2006-2007 L7- Super dark grey almost black cone with little silver logo.

2008-2009 L7- is on the Kicker site and the only one I have not used.

I am 100% correct unless you are Polecat telling me I'm not.

Lol yeah 12s, main reason I decided to upgrade when the 08.s came out was cuz the spiders where ripped on the 05s.

Im not polecat but i know for a fact that some of that is incorrect because 07 versions came in black as well. They looked like the 08's but with the old basket design.

lol nvm ignore me I read your post wrong lol...

Ya I used to rip the spiders out of the 2002 series and 2004 series.

For the most part I would say user error on my part but I used to beat the shit out of the 2000 model and never had any spider problems.

I never have had a problem with the 2006 model and I have heard the 2008 8 inch L7 in a ported box and about shit myself.

Much louder

I have the proof. I don't want to argue and I'm tired.

Do you want proof it will take 20 minutes becuase I don't have a scanner only a camra.

No biggy man.

Lets just say I have loved Kicker and studied their products for around 12 years.

But I stopped useing Kicker amps when they dropped the ZR/XS amps.

Its bed time.

Those be 2002-2003 model.

I've owned one of each but not the newest one. They all still have bugger all thermal power handling but they seem to be making things stronger physically. I used to chew the crap out of the soft parts on my old ones, they were just weak. The newer ones seem more rugged. As for louder, probably not a huge deal.
