Take W7 Out of box prowedge

[jowep55]

Hi,

I bought a W7 Prowedge preset box. I need to take the sub out of the box in order to fit it in my trunk. Then put the sub back in the box.

Anyone know how to get the sub out of the box? http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_enclosures.php?menu=5&prod_id=304

Any help?

Thanks!

u ever try to unscrew the whole front panel? i think it comes off...

Yes, I unscrewed the panel. It revealed the carpet to the box, and took the bars off. There are no screws visible under that.

well it is clever for jl to design it this way to hide the screws, thus making the sub look better

is it also clever of them to say that the sub can only be mounted horizontally, and by using their super duper special JDM W7 screws?

u gotta be kidding right....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

they designed the sub that way so that big doofy surround wont use up any of the surface area...they didnt design it for looks

lol get this, i was at the audio shop yesterday. My buddy is getting 4 13w7's. The guy said, due to the voice coil configuration, the JL 1000 watt amp is the ONLY amp ever made that can push the W7. Anyways, the mounting system is stupid IMO

I like the looks, I dont care what you say. And Jl did do it for looks and surface area both. Good comp sub, for sq spl and looks

 

[JLJunkieMX107 10+ year member]

JL themselves will tell you they are not an SPL sub company. Im not going to even get into it but they are not engineered to hit major deeebeeeez

 

[sothrowd 10+ year member]

:smokin:then it is for the looks then.

Guys, quit going OT with every single JL post. No one really GAF if you don't like it anymore. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif

The link posted should help you.

You have to take off the ring first. Should be able to do so with your fingers. Then take a screwdriver and wedge it against the other ring. Tap it with your palm; no need for a hammer. When you pop it out, take your fingers and run around the edge to take it off. Then fold back the surround on the sub. You won't damage it. Remove screws. Pray to god that you can get the dang thing out of the box by yourself, then call it a day.
