13w7

[Captin Jack 10+ year member]

i have a 2000 camaro that i am looking to put some subs into. my delema is that i dont know what i should put in there. right now im looking at a 13w7 ported or 3 10w6v2's in a sealed box. both would be 2 jl specs.

my question is what is going to be louder while keeping some decent sq?

i kno the w6 line is great for sq but will the 3 10's sealed have the same output as the 13 w7? then on the other side of it is a ported 13w7 gonna sound as good as 3 sealed 10's.

any help would be great.

yeah I would go with the w7 in a ported box but that's just my opinion

the 13w7 ported, will be louder

the 3 10w6v2s sealed, will sound better

if i were you, id run the 13w7 sealed, and if its not enough output, port it tuned low 30hz or lower

cause the 13w7 sealed, will put out about the same as the 3 10w6v2s sealed

Agreed.....I have a 12w7 sealed and sounds great.....just pour the juice to it!

You can make a single 13w7 be ridiculously loud if you do it right. What I mean by doing it right is:

1. A strong electrical system that consists of big 3 upgrade, quality battery, and a HO alternator.

2. A well insulated cabin with proper sound deadening.

3. A well built box with enough airspace and proper tuning.

4. A quality amplifier that provides plenty of wattage.

If you do all these things correctly, you could have one of the loudest and best sound cars on the block.

Not to mention 3 subwoofers will leave you with a awkward impedance. That is unless you're getting a slash series amplifier which has a regulated power supple.

i say the 13w7, but how exactly do you plan to get the airspace for it in the hatch of your car?

Yeah the subs get loud with the right amp..lol

 

[Captin Jack 10+ year member]

so hands down the w7 is gonna be louder and sound better?

Yeah I like the Dub 7 to I just sold one but I have 2 in my other car and it bumps. With the right install you'll love it.
