SPL and SQ heads up (13W7 vs 2006 XXX 12")

[threedd97 10+ year member]

I'm only going for a single subwoofer here and I'm wondering which will get louder and which will have the higher SQ as well. Which would you have? Why?

this is really hard to say seeing that only a small handful of people have touched a new XXX and even less have heard it

dub7 needs less power and has more cone area, gets my vote

stfu, you ****. you've never seen one, i'm sure, and niether have i.

i doubt you've even ever seen a W7 in person from how you reply to everyones threads.

is the right awnser.

Guess I'll just stick with the '06 XXX 12" choice then I originally had. I just saw some W7's 13's going for less than the new XXX here on the boards and thought about getting one. But I like having a sub that nobody around here really knows about and completely underestimates.

I think the 1" increase in cone area on the W7 s made up for in other departments with the new XXX's.

I really should rephrase the question to which will be louder.

I would keep my SS Rl-ps over a new XXX any day of the week

I've seen the thread with the pictures, and it's huge. I mean really big. Now I've seen impractical daily drivers, but this thing is huge. Plus, it retails for $650 or so, that's what the thread said. I wish I had the link, it was on this forum, but I can't find it. Anyways, it really does seem impractical for daily driving. Trust me, once someone chimes in with the pics, you'll see what I'm talking about.

Diaphram Displacement (Vd)

(xmax*2)Sd=diphram disp.

XXX

(54*2)480=51840cc Vd

13w7

(32*2)692.58=44325.12cc Vd

Which means that the advantage goes to the 12"XXX to move more air. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
