I have two kicker 10L7's right now but the box I have them in is too small, so it doesn't sound that great. I plan on building another box/amp rack and I might even venture into the world of glass but who knows. What I need help on is weither I should keep the subs I have now or buy new ones.
I am going for SQ, but I want to be able to turn it up a little if I wanna show off.
I was thinking about the new JL10W6v2's or the W7's
Any ideals or reviews on subs?

More info on my setup:
HU- Clarion VRX925VD
DSP- DVH920
MIds/Highs- Diamond Audio
Amps- 45x4 & 1100 Class D Memphis

The JL W7's are sweet. If you wanna show off those would do just fine. They are very expensive and heavy though.

I have heard a few bad reviews on the W7's!
Does anyone have (a) JL W7(s) in there trunk? If so do you like it? Is it worth the money to you?

Yeah I really wanna go with a cheaper Sub also.
I can get the JLW6v2's for under 500 for a set so thats not to bad.

What do you think would be the cleanest hitting sub?

Boston Acoustics Pro's are very tight hitting...
the biggest complaint is there too tight and not loud enough...

Ihave a JL10W7 in my WRX, it's powered by the JL 500X1, my interiors are JL components all around powered by the JL300X4 (I'm a JL guy...incase you couldn't tell). Let me tell you...the 10W7 is incredible, sound quality and volume it is second to none. My one 10 is louder and hits harder than 2-3 10W3's. The only draw back is that the box it sits in must be pretty big 1.5 cubic feet of space I believe, and it is very heavy. I've seen 10W7's blow apart normal box's. Since the WRX's trunk space is limited, fitting a boz and amp rack in will be a creative challenge. I have a temporary set up right now, but when mine is done I will post pics. I definately think the 10W7 is worth it's weight...anbd that says alot...try picking one u!
