Yea I think JLs are great for SQ and getting fairly loud, just not cut out for SPL, even if people have won with them....
I have/had (3)JL 12W6s (Almost gone, dude still owes me 150.00)...

buy new w7 = warranty....
with a 750 dollar price tag slapped on it.

$450 out the door authorized for me every single time. You could find the same deal it just takes a little footwork. The Brahma is a great sub but no W7 killer like everyone says and before you ask yes I have owned both.

Hey ksin291

What size box do you have your Brahma in and how does it take the 1000/1?

in addition to the post right above mine...did you like the w7's sq more than the brahma and which had more output in your opinion?

I don't have the Brahma anymore, I have 2 12w6v2's now in 3.5^3 ft tuned to 30 Hz. When I had the Brahma I ran it in a 2.25^3 ft. enclosure tuned to 30 Hz and it had a really good sound to it. It ran great off of the 1000/1 and IMO sounded better than it did when I ran it off of my PG Tantrum 1200.1. IMO the W7 has a warmer and fuller sound than the Brahma. I feel the Brahma handles power better when pushed but overall my nod goes to the w7. For the money however the Brahma is an excellent sub and I wouldn't mind having one again in the future, in fact I'm considering picking up a 10 for my wife's car.

isnt brahma more of an spl sub?

No, it's "the same" as the W7 in the sense that they are both SQ subs with balls (or, as we call it, SQL subs).

i would like to disagree a 13w7 gets pretty loud imo(have not had it metered) but yes they are expensive, yes they are probably overpriced, and yes they are very good subs
