the new premier sub is very good and matches up with the w7... it has a 3400 watt max and is relatively cheap. You can get one for around $200 compared to the w7 that ranges anywhere from $500 to $600

i would go with a sealed box myself. not as loud as ported or bandpass but more crisp bass and better quality. in comparison all the bandpass/ported systems ive heard do not sound all that good. i would go with a JL's if moneys no issue. kicker if your in the midrange. best bang for the SPL would be audiobahn.

RF,JL,Alpine it dont matter


Tuned your hell bent on AudioBahn arent u? LOL
I'm RF all the way but the choice is yours dude. Just pick something that has a high SPL(efficieny rating) and that will match(pretty close at least) the RMS rating of the amp. I could give you at least 100 reasons to go woth RF but im sure others could give you just as many for any other brand too. Really its about personall taste and budget.

Any questions, illl be glad to help hpjunkie302@netzero.net

I say a DD3512 or 3515 it will give you the best SQ and SPL ber dollor and will take way more then that amp will give but will still work nice on it.You will be surprized and thankful if you do trust me.But the big Q is what size of box you planing on or whats the room you have to use this will make or break any system.I do installs for a living part time so all things are not all the same in other installs but if you have 2.5-2.7cuft of box space you can`t go wrong with the DD

nothing wrong with jl if u can afford it, but mtx is pretty good. i have 2 4500 series mtx 12's powered with a bazooka 800 watt amp, and i'm hitting in the 130-135 db range
