3377, Anybody running the new JL W7's
Posted by FlyinEsi, Jul-26-02 06:23 PM
The guy at the audio shop said some guy was going to install 2-13" W7's in his Eclipse and was going to blow out the back window with them. Do any of you guys have these? And how do they sound, I haven't heard them yet? Anything better out there?

Yeah they are pretty badass subs I have heard them and WOW. I am sure they are one of the best subs on the market but....have you seen the price tag they put on those things.

I think they retail for over $700 a piece and you can get them on ebay for like 3-400 a piece. Right away that scared me away from them. I also went with the Alpine type R subs and love them...

Think the only thing you can compare them to are the Orion HCCA subs or maybe the Memphis ones that have the dual cones and shit. They are a very high end sub and put out alot of sound. ONly problem is you have to have a damn good amp to mate them with or your just wasting your time.....

I had a friend who wanted to put 2 of the 13.5" w7 with 2 of the big extant amps in the back of his tahoe, but the amount of box space was huge even for the tahoe, so i bet that 2 of them in an eclips would be a real tight fit, and who really needs that much bass, i mean i hit 149 decibls with one 12" punch power dvc, so i would imagine 2 of those would just kill someone
