Gold Member Username: PitbullguyThe Chicago area Post Number: 3329 Registered: Oct-06 | Talk about opposite ends of the spectrum. You said "loud and nice SQ", so that would be the dub six I guess since I can beat box better sq than you'll get on a L7. the w6's are the nicest sounding subs i've ever heard, ever. |

I thought it would be obvious that I was being sarcastic to say I can beat box better sq than ANY subwoofer. Secondly, the comment needs to be taken in context. L7's aren't bad at all in general, but when being compared to a W6, the SQ is MILES apart in my opinion. |

Cody... from the sound of it you want a SQL type sub.... there are many to choose from... some will cost less than the JL W6... What is your budget for subs, amps, enclosure, and elecrical upgrades(if needed)? |

Gold Member Username: PitbullguyThe Chicago area Post Number: 3332 Registered: Oct-06 | "maybe its cause everyone on this site is saying how they sound terrible so you assume they do." EDIT: rainbows, puppies, teddy bears. I have never on this forum pretended to be any more proficient in car audio than I am, and have made it a point to only speak on topics that I actually have experience with. These are two of the relatively few subs that I have experience with. |

You kinda burst my bubble though lol. just cause i really don't have much CA experience, so i usually feel like i shouldn't try to give an opinion. Chad + Ehren = BFFs |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 7897 Registered: Jul-06 | W6 = great SQ L7 = loud but sounds like azz. |

Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 21686 Registered: Oct-05 | "L7 = loud but sounds like azz." some azz sounds good when you slap it though. |

Silver Member Username: BonhamdTC, MI USA Post Number: 835 Registered: Nov-07 | ctmike - i have not heard it but only read reviews and see that it seems to be a good deal is there anything wrong with that? |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 6298 Registered: Feb-06 | i was simply asking a question, calm down. was asking cause i haven't really seen any reviews of these subs yet, and figured since you recommended them that maybe you actually heard them. any chance you can link me to some reviews as i've been curious as to their performance, etc? |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Es DEALER, GA USA Post Number: 2151 Registered: Mar-06 | We have a few reviews out, but not many. You can ask Nick V and Canaan to give you a little reviews as well considering they heard the exact subs being sold Kevin |

New member Username: Cg618Post Number: 7 Registered: Jul-08 | my budget is decent I'm workin 36 hours a week at walmart so i got a bit lol |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 6302 Registered: Feb-06 | what exactly is 'decent'? because not only do you have to afford the subs, but also the amp/s for them. and possibly electrical upgrades as well. and do you need to get speakers and an amp, and hu as well? |
|
New member Username: Cg618Post Number: 8 Registered: Jul-08 | head units taken care of ya i gotta get speakers still and an i found a jl 1000/1 for $250 so thats good $825 a month |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 6303 Registered: Feb-06 | i don't care what you make a month, what's your budget for your system? and where'd you find that jl amp that cheap? cause that is really low so i'd be careful with that buy, unless you know the buyer or can take it yourself to have it benched. |
|
New member Username: Cg618Post Number: 9 Registered: Jul-08 | oh my budget ill spend whatever i need and the amps from my friend |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 6304 Registered: Feb-06 | last time, POST A BUDGET!! if not, you will get recommendations on systems ranging from $1,000 to more than $10,000. also, are you willing to upgrade the electrical? this will determine roughly the size of the system (power wise) you can safely run. |

Gold Member Username: Loc_outSOCAL2 RE 15 XXX Post Number: 2268 Registered: Feb-05 | Cody so you already have the JL right? What kind of car is this going into? |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 6305 Registered: Feb-06 | and if you get that 1000/1 remember unless you have an extremely nice electrical system, you can't run it at 1ohm. and it's not very efficient. |
