I currently have a 180 gallon with (4) 96W CF Actics and (3) 250 W 14K Phonix Bulbs....Since I changed my bulbs from 10K to 14K my tank doesn't seem as bright and I'm wondering if I still have enough light for my SPS?

It does seem brighter since 14k is bluer than than the 10k. Your sps should be ok.

I switched from 10k to 14k a few months ago and it took me a little to get used to it. I felt the same as you.
but the colors of the corals are better and now Im very happy.
