1. W7
2. RE XXX
3. DD
Other than that I haven't heard the rest and i guarantee the rest of these guys haven't. They are just simply going by what they think they like better.
SPL:
1. RE XXX
2. SOLO X KICKER
The XXX will roast a W7 and a SOLO X anyday the next closest sub id say would be an Fi BTL other than that the XXX slays.
Best overall out of these..
Easily the RE audio XXX.
Resonant engineering is not very common but a premier brand and there subs are insane. I heard a single 12" RE MX and it kicked the crap out of a 12" W7 no word of a lie.
The JL W7 is just what everyone thinks is the best. JL is overpriced but they make a damn good woofer.
RE is expensive but trust me, it will cook any of those subs with ease.
If you don't want to spend the money, go with a BTL they are cheaper. If your getting an 18 BTL, well you won't hear them highs but the lows will be felt immensly. The XXX will be better overall but with a cost of more money.
Good luck."

these woofers all have there strong points but the really stand out woofers r the xxx, dd, btl, and w7 in my opinion ....the w7 however is overpriced like no other...the xxx is very expensive but does deliver ...the dds have some of the best costomer service of any brand ...they will customize the woofer to ur exact description and the will change the size of the woofer whenever u want it...for example if have a suv and have a dd 9515 in it and u later buy a coupe they will change the cone and basket of ur woofer and send u back a 10 or a 12...they btls r very cheap for the way they perform... they can take up to 4000watts daily and win the competition everytime...fi customizes ur woofer the way u want it but i have never been able to actually talk to a person from the company ...dd on the other have takes calls all the time and u can talk to the experts about the direction u should go in when deciding how to build ur system...dd is like a fraternity bec u will have lfetime connections whenit comes to there products and since they r a smaller company they care if one person need help...u probably already know the orions and soloxs r only good for pure spl...the 9500s not bad but they r nothing compared to the rest of this group ..and the premier is a record holder but i dont care for them for some reason ...to add to the list of woofers to check out i hve been looking at mmats stuff...their amps handle business like world champions and there woofers r state of the art...the subs i was focusing on were the juggernaut series bec dd used to be affiliated with them and i have never heard a bad thing about mmats .......i recently went to a competition(a small local competition but a competition non the less) and i placed 4th in my category ....2 of the 3 people who beat me were using mmats and loved them to death(this is another reason i looked into them)...so if ur lookin to compete almost any othe the monsters on the list will get u somewhere good.....i know this might be the longest answer ever but enjoy"

countrylad replied: "Not sure i can help but here goes. There should be red/white socket at rear of tv[ audio] + same on home theater equip'.+ some systems connect via scart lead for sound and picture,so you have less leads, all differ but try the scart option first, as this is the easiest method."
Vincent V replied: "use the monitor out connection on your tv... the yellow one is video and the red and white are for audio/sound... red is right channel, white is left channel... just connect that to one of the Aux connections on your home theater set and leave the video (yellow) one open (don't connect it to anything)"

For this amplifier in particular (KAC-9104D) is better put the 2 subwoofer (KFC-W3514DVC) in 2 or 4 oms?
Thanks!
Jmann replied: "If you r planning on running them at a 4 ohm final load, you'll be fine. Just wire the coils in series and the subs in parallel. No worries from there."
georgewillings replied: "You can wire them down to 2 OHM load and still be good seeing how that amp is 2 OHm stable. Also leave the bass boost off as it will kill your subs."
