And befor any one says it yes i do have my electrical upgrade lol

Your system just wont be as responsive (sq) your comparing a spl system to a SQ system so there will still be the difference of what your trying to achieve... just trying to make it louder right?

I really wish people would quit calling W7s SQ subs. They are not, and they are not meant to be. They are meant to be an SQL sub and they are not even good at that. W7 in a ported box=decently loud but sloppy. W7 in a sealed box=ok SQ but not much output. And before someone says i am wrong i have owned these subs and worked in a shop that sold them. JL is HIGHLY overrated especially for the price, this is just my opinion and i do not want to argue about it.

And sqlcrazy if you have the room for a large box i would go with 2 subs rather than one b/c to get loud it takes cone area. Also just about any sub you give 3000 watts isnt going to have great sq where as 2 subs with half that much power has a lot more potential.

the special about the w7 its that its virtually free of noise while moving, and because of the design the jl sounds weird typically diferemt fromother woofers not like bad weird i mean good weird its sounds they have a diferent way of reproducing the sound i dont know why though

2 3515s would be good, or even 2 audioque HD3s would be great. JL isnt that great though and it is SEVERELY overpriced so please dont consider buying it.

Good, and i think 2 subs is your best bet, just make sure you have room for the box that they will require first.

I second the HD3 motion, i have 1 on 1200 watts right now and it is loud and has pretty good SQ
2 on the P3000.1 would pound

To clarify things muddy JL isnt overpriced as a whole the w7's are. The w6's are well worth the ebay price you can get them for. Their amps are very nice aswell and again worth the ebay price. When talking about retail I dont think many products are worth their retail. There are a few but not many.

o understand that James...but here is my gripes...


1. i don't like Mainstream, don't ask....long story
2. i HATE ebay, no warranty, not guaranteed what you are biding on.
3. i can get subs of the same caliber, for less...hook-up style. lol

for $299 it's tough getting a sub with the same abilty as the w6v2. Feedback ratings are there on ebay for a reason. You are right about the warranty but a lot of companies on ebay will warranty them for a year. I hear you about mainstream but you can't say that DD isnt mainstream. JL is so expensive because they have excellent customer service, a great reputation, and people continue to pay for their products so they will not lower the price. If you could sell apples for $5 a piece would you stop?

JL sells a lot of products at their rediculous prices b/c people think they are the best. People only think this b/c they have not had the opportunity to hear better brands b/c they are not mainstream like JL. And its not just the W7s that are overpriced its EVERY sub/amp JL sells. Im not saying they make bad pruducts but for the money they are nowhere near worth it.

EASY! Take your pick, about any high level sub from a good company will do. And his "1000 watt amps" cant really be putting out anywhere near that b/c those subs are rated at 300-400 i think so that pair of subs probably wouldnt handle a true 1000watts very well. I would still recommend the subs that i did before but just one instead.

Yeah one 3515 should kill those subs in SPL. Just put in in a pretty big box and tune it around 35hz i would say.

It will have lower bass yes, but if that is what you are looking for you might want to tune it more around 30-32, should still get loud but it will be deeper and more SQ
