^I had the same exact set up but I never got metered. It was loud tho. My friends were jealous if thats the effect you want.

i had a 12 a while back, it was decent for 1 12, but i didnt have much to compare to, if i heard it now, i would probably laugh //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

my buddy took it out of my car when i didnt have a amp for a couple days, and hooked it up @ 1 ohm to a V12 (only 2 ohm stable) 500 watt amp. i dont need to say more i guess //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif so its going in for a recone once yovemee66 or whatever his name is gets back to me

It gets low, sounds good while not great, and is pretty loud.

Its almost not low enough for my tasted but defenitely satisfies my other needs.

I dont know how the guy with 1k smoked one, but mine is on my 20.1 at 1 ohm and its taking the power like a champ.

Mine was great off 1k the 20.1 must sound pretty **** nice tho.. Also to me it didnt sound that great and did nt hit the lows for me either.. I had a 12w7 in my car before and i wanted to hear all the re hype from a year -2 yrs ago so i picked up a 12 to compare.. Even tho w7s are double the price of a new sx i still wouldnt buy another re at there new prices.. ( i paid 1/2 retail for my w7 )

why didnt you buy an 05 XX for comparison to a W7. Id still buy RE stuff over JL (unless i can find some mint w6ae)

I Traded a 13W7 which i got for free and 100 bucks for my 06 XXX and will never go back to JL.

Back on topic though, please include box izes and port tuning if you guys can remember, i have an sx 12 atm that i have in only 2.5cube at 32hz and it sounds nice

12sx

2.5@35 ( re spec box )

3.2@35

3.5@30

3,5@40

For daily i liked the 3.5@30 I thought it might have been too big but it worked well.. For me And on the w7s there picky *** sh!t with enclosures but have seen many do mid 40s w 1 and high 40s and a few 50s with 2... The whole motor structure is soo loose its tough to get them to play tones from what ive seen and worked with .. But 4 12 w7s as a street beater sounds good to me.. I liked the 06xxx but at the time i didnt wannna dish out more $$ for another amp.. Especially when im sitting on 2 mc1000d's and a sx12 as it is.. Trying to buy a new car to play with //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Sorry bout the hijack as well .. Buy the sx //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
