Can these two even be put in the same category?

Maybe in SPL they would be similiar, but in their recommended enclosures, you will most certainly here a difference in SQ in which the W6v2 is superior in.

You sir are wrong.

Where are you getting this info from?

thats what i thought, their t/s parameters are so close

Well I have personal experience with both drivers, and plenty of reviews from dealers that carry both products. The w6 is the JL driver that is closest to the RE SE, with that, the SE proved to have capabilities of getting louder and sounding better.

what size box did you have the SE in

anything you didnt like about the SE

thinking about putting my HC in my room and getting 2 SE's for my car

I just ran my SE12 temp. in 1 cube sealed inbetween my more 'serious' installs, and for the crappy box I was very impressed with it. 2 12's ported in about 2.5 cubes will sound great. SE is "or was" easily one of my favorite drivers, untill the prices went up.

I personally like the w6 better. Both are nice drivers though.

I would take the JL w6 over an SE anyday and even pay full price for the JL.

i have an SE and a buddy of mine has a w6v2, IMO i think the SE is louder but the w6 sounds a lil better SQ wise. both were ported

i like my SE //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

ok, but what if the SE was turned down to the same volume as the w6v2, would the SE's sq then be as good

I have had a set of SE 12's and they were sealed off about 800 rms and my buddy had 1 12" off a 500.1 JL amp and he was sealed and he was almost as loud and sounded a hell of a lot better to. The se's just never impressed me. I didnt have them very long.
