cant decide what to do! help quick!

ok heres my situation:

my present setup is 2 12 JL W3V2's in the JL High Output Box being powered by a orion 600D

so far, i have 2 deal i can choose from:

1.) 2 12" JL W6V2's for a pretty good price, BUT

how will they sound if i put them in the JL high output box? I dont really have time to build a box or anything, so i was thinking of just putting the w6v2s in my old box. or should i BUY a prefab sealed box? (remember, im not looking to build myself a box) which do you think will sound better?

also, for a little bit, these subs would be powered by my orion 600D amp which would only give them each 300 watts.. but for sure, later i will upgrade my amp.

so what should i expect from these subs in the JL H.O. box powered with 300 watts each?

2.) 1 10" W7 for an even better price BUT

im not going to build a box, so im probably going to BUY a prefab box for it

and with the money left over, upgrade my amp

i cant decide... the w6s are what i really want, but it will be pricy and the w7 is a great deal i cant pass up..

what are the pros and cons with the 2 options?

EDIT:

also, i want a setup that can get loud but still keep sq.. probably, my ratio of spl to sq is 65 : 35

^ why the W7?

 

[scheibler 10+ year member]

The w7 is a beast, but why waist all that peformance in a prefabed box? Are you basically only looking at JL because there is many more companies htat offer better products for your money imo

 

[iltoivfe 10+ year member]

^ no, its just that these 2 options were the best deals ive come upon recently..

well, instead of a prefab box, would i be able to pay someone to build it and send it to me?

Yes a lot of people on the forum would be willing to build a box for you. i think Moe just stopped making them but send him a pm i think he said he'd do a couple here and there. Search the box section and u'll find tons of people.

If it was in a trunk Id pick the w7 but if its in a suv 2 w6's would sound nice.

do the two w6s... way more cone area, and they're not tremendously different than the w7... easier to not have to deal with another box... and off 300w ea they'll still sound great.
