yeah i c what u mean. I jus wanted to use the Circuit city subs only cuz i get a big discount and i can return em for the next 5 years if they blow. Or i can trade em in and get somethin else within that time period. Well im jus gonna try n figure somethin out myself with this damn ported thing. I jus wanna build a 3 cu/ft box tuned to 30 hz. Ill get back to u when i find somethin out thanks for all the help man

nice nice, how u got the hook up on alpine? Im not too much of a fan of JL. I see it everywhere and I get sick when everyone tells me how much Jl and Audiobahn are the shit. Thats all i ever hear at work, "Damn you got those audiobahns, they are the shit. I had a setup bla bla bla but it blew..." lol and people always ask why we dont sell JL or kicker. O well we mostly sell out MTX and alpine neways. But yeah i wanted to go wit Elemental or the magnum d2's but thats gonna b farther ahead once i learn a lot more on enclosures and the such

yes i kno they are like one of the best out there and the w7 is one of the most advanced subs out there bla bla i get flamed for it all the time. Im jus not a big fan of JL. its like a civic, everyone has one, and they reason they do is cuz they are good and realiable. But in JL's case they are overpriced and they kno they can do it and people will pay it. Like what rockford did with their products. Back in the day they made kick ass products and now they make shitty stuff and charge the same or more as they used to but since they got that rep. they kno people will pay. JL is over played and for the price u can get shit much cheaper IMO. i kno im gonna get flamed at least once but some hardcore JL lover like always but o well YOU CAN BLOW ME. Just like damn audiobahn lovers. Audiobahn plain sucks except for the amps which are still over priced. I have no idea how audiobahn got the name they did? Havent they always sucked?

so you dont liek because its popular..yet you own alpine...

I like JL amps. Subs are nice, w7 is good, but imho brahma or XXX is better than the w7, DD is also right up there.. but peopel are paying and that is capitalism.. i dont really like the jl comps or coax anymore, ive heard stuff I prefer over them.. but its all a matter of opion.. as to what you think SOUNDS better.

and yes you cna get much cheaper shit..but you get what you pay for.

Audiobahn is where they are because peopel like the shiny stuff...and have no idea about sonic accuracy..they want loud, and 98 percent listen to rap 24/7.. and in many reviwes audiobahn had a sweet spot @ ~45hz, a nice little bump...

I think the W7 is one of the top best subwoofers made today.... but not the BEST for the MONEY.
