I think that jlw7s are great subs and worth the money.

where are 12w7's $350 new

in the last couple months i think it was "slammed" selling 2 of them for around 350 each and even retroaudioinc was selling one for 400 shipped

search the classifieds they were their for a while within the last month.

Not from a dealer/store, no warranty...try again.

I can find crazy deals in the classifieds all day long...doesn't mean that's the norm or something that I can get whenever I want at that price.

I have a W1v2 and W3v3. cant speak for the w7's in terms of comparisons but the flagships of other makers is sometimes twice what JL charges. audiopuls is like $1700, so like $600 more for 1.5 inches more cone area.

My subs arnt very loud compared to other low-mid level brands but their accurate and clean deep sound. I've had em for a year and with twice the power they can take a serious beating and still play good. even had em in a wrong sized bandpass that probably shouldve ripped em apart but didnt.

i've seen alot of blown subs from brands like kicker,alpine..etc over the past 17 or so years that i've been interested in car audio, but at least for the money you know their going to last as long as you care for them to.

Muncie isn't small....... ~65k population (which is "big" to me). Spent two weeks there about a year ago.....I could happily live the rest of my life if I never went back to that turd.

no its not that small, maybe like 80,000 population not including the 25,000 BSU kids. might be smaller now since theres few jobs here lol. the towns immediatly around muncie are pretty small though.

but no, i dont know this nazi lady. though now i'm curious why she's called that lol

Hmmm, I wonder what size of sealed and ported enclosure works well for that XXX. And dealer prices are not even close to that low.

0.5cu. ft. for either //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

look up the box specs and think again. They are pretty close.

As for dealer prices, they are quite comparable. For the stats on the XXX compared to the JL, the XXX is still a much better buy.

I believe the box specs for the XXX is not realistic. To be more specific, they's lyingz to yo ***.

 

[newusername 10+ year member]

Should I look up the boxes the manufacturer recommends?

Or I should I actually compare the boxes the drivers work best in?

I can tell you that I know of a dealer who buys XXX's off of eBay instead of getting them from US Amps because it is cheaper even for him that way.

Which "stats" are you comparing, by the way?
