Does anyone have any experience with this sub, and how much better is the W7?

Highs, lows of the subs?

Anyone? :cool:

Are you talking W6v2? or the original?

The new W6v2 is a great sub depending on the power levels you wanna put to it. I prefer the Eclipse Aluminum subs but I like a lil more detail form my subs. If I wanted more sheer output I would have probably used a W6v2.

Unless you plan on runniong 800watts RMS to each speaker I would stick with the w6V2 over the W7. The W7 is a massive SOB and requires a ton of power. Most cars will not be able to supply the poper current required to run 2 of these without an alternator upggrade and at $400+ for the alternator most people won't do it.

You could get great sound quality and output (even at low frequencies) with 2 W6v2s and a 1000w RMS amp. bettwe than you would with 1 W7 and the same amp :)

If you are not talking about the v2 line, remember the 6 ohm coil.

I'm talking about the sub that is just below the W7.

What would be a good amp that doesn't cost a arm and a leg to run with it?

I think the JL subs are unbelievable....there is no need for the w7 its way too much....the new line of w6 subs a just enough if not more as long as you power them enough.....i have a pair of old school w3's and i love them for clarity and depth, I dont think i'll ever go to a different company for subs in any of my cars....So if i were you i would definetly go with the w6's......

P.S.-If your interested im selling a brand new 2400 watt puch amp from Rockford Fosgate, I picked it up a couple of months ago and just have no use for it i want more power under the hood now, I would like to get around $400 for it....E-Mail me if your interested at Immortalnb@aol.com
