[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8676548, member: 650438"] Amps have the least impact on sound quality as long as they are all within clean operating limits under low THD. Buying a class D subwoofer amp built for "SQ" is literally borderline snake oil. The enclosure design, how it works well with the subwoofer along with the, vehicle acoustics and signal processing/eq/signal strength all matter way more than a sticker on an amp labeled for SQ. Hell an extreme spl sub with extreme SPL placed highly in a national SQ competition and got the flattest frequency response with tight bass just to show you how insignificant their point is. The proof in the attachments. no, JL is overpriced, all you are pay for is the name brand. There's plenty of subs half the price of a W7 that will absolutely murder it and piss on its grave. The dayton I recommended is basically W6 performance for waaaaay cheaper. The TS parameters and enclosure specs are very similar. A 10 w7 right now costs 200-250 on craigslist which is closer to what the sub's performance should cost. In the price range of the W7.
