Digital Designs sound opinion.

They are not very musical subs to me, but lots of people swear by them...

I have to disagree, because when they are not shakin your vehicle apart,they play notes very well,they hit high bass and mid bass very well, the only thing i can compare them to in my opinion are....funky pups.

Lawlz. He speaks truth though, W7s are the loudest and best sounding subs ever made.
W7s also put out more watts than any amplifier.

And duh,we all know this.

Just pulled out my W7 for a DD1508. The enclosure is no way geared for the DD1508 so its hard to really judge it. One thing I did notice is a hollow sound. My sub still needs to break in so I am gonna give it some time and raise the tune higher. Not the best sub for music so far but I will give it a chance and play with the enclosure.

Not a fan of DD at all.

Although they do make that EL34 amp I'd love to hear some day //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

In sound quality, my 2 1508's crush the hell out of my 10w1v2's i used to have. I know the w1's are JL's entry level sub, but so is the 1500 series of DD. The w1's cant take shit for power and don't even compare to the 1500 series //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Most of what seperates one sub from another is frequency response. All DD subs are tuned around 40hz usually. Getting the hollow sound can be done with most subs if you can get the same response curve. My guess is a pretty sharp peak in the 45-55hz area. The lack of shit your pants notes and audible loudness to the ear is a lack of lowend, which makes sense being tuned to high.

43hz is my shit your pants frequency //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Well, I have to say this. Its all going to be personal preference.

You drive a Ford, get stuck and the guy w/ a dodge pulls you out. You get your dodge stuck, the chevy pulls you out. Your chevy is stuck, the ford pulls you out...(mean while the guy w/ the toyota is sitting by the mudhole drinkin beer, rims and paint clean).

Hell, I have ran the old Adire Brahma MKII subs...back then 'people' were *****ing about how XBL^2 didn't have nice high-bass output, WTF??? really??? My Brahma sounded great. Then less than year later they all spammed the web about how great the Mag was for SQ and highend bass. Then WTF do you know...a year of 2 later...the Mag is using XBL^2. WOW....LOL at all the internet bandwagon cawk suckers.

To each their own. If you like the tight punchy sound of a DD2500...have fun. Play the hell out of it.

If you like your muddy, sloppy Kicker L7...blow it and buy another one...lol

But hey, get in my Avalanche w/ DD3515's and tell me they sound 'hollow'...lol
