[QUOTE="CarlB, post: 512177, member: 556128"] L7's are pricy, thats the deal. They are a little less that an 8w7, and if I had that money, Id get the w7 instead of the W0. :P "the RE8's only need about 70 watts to hit full potential, RMS is just the mathmatical RMS of the sub. all the calculations and all that make it out to be 175, the subs need nowhere near that but WILL HANDLE IT" I know its the thermal rating, but the mechanical RMS hits before that, but I asked that a while ago, and I didn't get a straight answer as to how much power they need for full excursion in a 0.217 sealed box, or in a 0.5 ported box. Wanna give me those numbers? What amp I will be getting will depend on what subs I get, plain and simple. Its gonna be a good amp though. JL, Kicker or Alpine. [/QUOTE]
