prove it

prove the H2's can take the w7 in a normal install.

from my ears unless you get our w7 installed in a professional shop and have a very well built box the output is not so good....plus the h2 is a street beater. and u have a easier time making the h2 pound and sound well doing it

How exactly would you have any easier time making the H2 "pound"? If anything, H2's are harder to get moving because they don't really start moving unless you throw 2,000+ watts at them. Just an example, say if you were using a 1000/1, I'd like to bet a 12W7 would be louder than a 12" H2 because it'll take advantage of it's nominal power.

ok say u hooked a 2000watts rms hifonics amp @1ohm and u hoooked a 1000watt amp up to a w7 though. both with really good rec. ported boxes.

ps. im saying this because u can get a 12.2 h2 on http://www.sounddomain.com for $225

The w7 will spank it SQ wise in a daily install no question about it. I've heard mixed reviews about the H2's some people say they are extremely easy to blow (not necessarily the woofers fault tho)...w7's do get pretty freakin loud too.

The only thing the H2 spanks the w7 in is price .

I didnt think the W7 was hard to install at all? As long as you are capable of building a quiality box? Personally mine sounds phenominal and is pretty **** loud. (mine is a 13W7) If you have the money I would go with a W7 given the options if now get a H2 and be happy. I bought my brother a 15H2 off ebay new for 200shipped. It runs off of a Memphis ST1500D, it is a good sub and gets loud....

you might save on the sub, but the amp to power the H2 will need more power. not that it will make a huge difference, but something to consider.

And more power means more of a strain on your electrical system......
