Kickers are good if you like loud sloppy bass with no real deep extention.
There are many better choices if you prefer a little sound quality along with your boom.

I can't say that I ever compared them, but I doubt that the JL is *twice* as good as the shiva. 
But... I might be inclined to get an Ascendant Atlas first. It's only a few bucks more than the Shiva and appears to be a considerable improvement.
