How do you know that? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

Do you really want to know?

with the x and zv4 I heard the surround makes up for some of the lost cone area

Lmao the surround is why there Is 10% less cone area.

Half the surround's width is factored into SD specs

It's all relative.

The surround causes less cone area but it has a bit more xmax

Equal subs have a bit less xmax and no lose cone area.

It evens them out.

I see, but wont the sundown sound a bit worse (not bad) but a bit worse when its in heavy excursion? the more excursion the less accurate it becomes? Or is that just a rumor?

If it has enough motor force and coil length to stay linear during high excursion, it should not sound any worse.

Haven't heard that rumor.

When it exceeds linear excursion, it will not sound as pleasing to the ear.

They sound a lot like the W7. Some like it some don't. JL managed to do it without losing cone area or having surrounds dimple.

And people say W7s are overpriced.

The sundown x zv4 nsv3 are prly one of thee most accurate woofers out there threw the whole stroke.

W7 are over priced. They do look/sound great but a sundown x or zv4 or nsv3 will stomp a w7 no questions asked. And I like how u said jl managed to do it without loosing cone area. They because they made it a 13" woofer

Someone should make a really deep motor with a ridiculously long coil just for funzies //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Also, their surround goes to the outside of the basket.

This is awesome, but then you can't invert them. I have to invert my subs because of depth issues.

Ya and the Jl 13" w7 sells for $699-849 online it seems. Get a nsv3 for that kind of money
