Default JL W7 vs Alpine Type X

Ok, just wanted to see where this debate would go, so have it.

3 categories.
SPL:
SQ:
Overal bang for your buck:

Which do you think is better? Now that I have my system finished. (and fairly happy with it) I'm already planning my next stage, more powwwwaa and bass.

Not to be an ass (even though I can be at times), but the discussion is between W7 and the Type X, not the W6.

Also the Type-X will hit notes a lot better, W7s are known to miss. (must be too much wooshyness)

No thanks. I'm trying to be as compact as possible, I don't want 13 or 12" woofers. Again, this discussion is between the W7s vs Type Xs
