13w7?

[BumpinDoug 10+ year member]

Ok, first of all, I have a 13W7 in a ported box with a 1000/1 going to it, so i can speak from experience on this. It gets loud, real loud, mine hit 147 with the mic mounted on the dash, but I do have a small car (Audi A4). And yes, it is under warranty up to 2000 watts, so pretty soon ill be getting my second 1000/1 hooked up to this thing. And I talked to the guy at the shop about it, and he said these woofers can take serious punishment, he had 5000 watts hooked up to a single 13W7 and it still didnt bust. 1000 watts is almost underpowering these things, but they still get real loud with that kinda wattage going to em. So I recomend going witht he 13W7, it sounds amazing and pounds like hell, even with only 1000 watts runnin to it.

the jbl is aight but it always overheats and people say its like 950 watts

I run mine at 1 ohm at it has no problems...also ive read alot about people benching these amps for over 1300 watts.

i would suggest to get a good amp that sends 1000-1500 watts continuous to the 13w7. yes jl warrants it up to 2k watts. remember it can ran at 3ohms or 1.5 so try to find a amp that would work well with those specifications even though there aren't to many. good luck.

Anything with JL next to it is crap and is not worth wasting time with. Go Diamond Audio.

jbl used to be a good brand, but within the past few years, it isn't as hard to find something better. The jl w7 and a rock fos amp would kick a$$

Yes that's what I'm hoping for my 2 12W7's and my RF amps..... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/clap.gif.178cba2c538c68e720c727fcb024b19c.gif
