EX is only availible in canada through kicker, that's why it doesn't appear on their site or around the web that much.
It's a lower line than the comp, I guess us canadians are just too cheap, lol.
And the Solobaric L7 is gods gift to man if you're wondering.
However they shine in large ported box compared to small sealed.

lol, maybe directly from kicker.
I sell kicker as a large source of my income.
Solobarics have been around since 1992 when the first "a" series sub was released. They were designed for small sealed boxes as you said. However alot has changed since then and now the new Solobarics are designed for everything but small sealed boxes, for example the new 12" L7's have a Qts of 0.66, which means they'll need a huge box to have an SQ alignment in a sealed box.
Here's some posts that may enlighten you...
Polecat is an employee from kicker and listen to what he says

lol, o.k so we agree that they are great subs...it offers better sq in a sealed..... i can put any sub in a ported enclosure to create a 3db gain so ya, ported is louder..that means nothing to me. according to all the kicker guys at ces this year ( not a guy in a forum) solo's are for sealed.. if someone finds out that he can get some boom from a ported thats cool but like i said ,which is true..they were made for small sealed boxes.
but in any case this was not his question so i think we can both agree that yes you can fit a 12 l7 in the trunk....

But don't expect them to sound great in a small sealed box.
If you want to use the L7's in a sealed box you'll need to go above 1.5 cu. ft. per 12, otherwise you will notice alot of overhang and the transient response will suffer not to mention it will sound quite boomy with a Qtc above 1.00
Also ported will result in up to 6db with these subs also they'll sound quite good IMHO. Who told you to run them sealed at CES this year, i know most of the people who work at kicker and i'm really suprised to hear that they said that. However if SQ is your primary goal, then yes sealed is better, but you'll still have to use a big box.
