Let me know. I work at a somewhat high end car audio shop in Tampa Florida. We carry JL Audio, Boston Acoustics, Eclipse, Pioneer Premier, and Autopage Alarms. If any of you need anything, let me know. Maybe I can get you something cheaper than your local stereo shop. And at least you know it will be coming to you brand new (no refurbs). I can get very good deals on alarms and speakers. Decent on amps and video products. Email me at acooper6969@hotmail.com if you have any questions. I am getting ready to hook up my LS this week! :dj:
 
Can you get your hands on any Alpine equipment cause I'm a Alpine guy?

If not ya I could use
2 JLW7 12"
Pioneer AVIC-N1
and a amp. to power them give me a quote?
 
can u give us an example of what u can get and at what price u can get it, subs, tv, HU, amp. that would help, please.
 
Not an ALpine or JVC dealer, but I will check. I am about to go to work right now, so I will let you all know by the end of the day what I can do for you all. :dj:

1. 10w7 - $349.95
Damm, I got my 2 15" Kicker L7's for the price of one of the 10's. I knew that JL was good.... But 350.00 for a sub... No also my subs were not an ebay deal but they were direct from kicker.
 
The L7 and W7 are not even in the same league, with all do respect man. L7 not even in the league with a W6. Between a W3 and W6. 10w7 retails at 599.95. :dj:
 
All I am trying to say is why would I buy a 10" W 7 when I can get a 12 or even a 15 L7 that will have the same if not more prussure that a 10w7 has? I don't mean to be a ass but who holds the world record? To anwser it is KICKER

I mean I am not knocking JL but for the money they are not worth it. I know that they make great subs but for the retail of 2 JL 10w7 = 1200.00 MY whole system 2 15 2 1250.1 1 700.4 and power and RCA's I paied 1500.00
Now I am sure that I have just as much if not more prussure then 2 JL subs for about the same amout as the subs them self. - Not to say you also have to get the amps to power them.

Just my $0.02

Everybody has thier own opinion of what the best is for the money. But a couple of things, kicker no longer holds the record, and keep in mind I have sold both JL and Kicker. At one shop I worked at, a guy had 2 L7 15's in a blazer w/ 2 Alpine 1000w amps (one on each) and hit a 148.7 at the dash (real meter). He was disappointed, so he went to a lower class to compete. He went w/ 1 13w7 and a JL 1000/1 and hit 151.4, at the dash. And there is no comparison in sound quality between the two. I am not trying to say that they are for everyone, but when comparing a Ferrari to a Mercedes, there is a difference. You may rather have 2 mercedes than 1 ferrari. But, tried and true, the W7 is louder and cleaner by quite some margin. :dj:
 
bro you must think I have not done car audio. I have worked with car audio for about 10 years now. Last time I checked, the w7 did not have that kind of prussure to hit 151.3 The only way this sub "could" creat this much prussure is if you are mesuring the sub outlaw style and put the mic in the port. I think you are talking out of you ass, 151.3 . Oh by the way you guys must have some :q:q:q:qty installers because w/ 2 15's I hit 158.6 that is w/ the mic on the dash in my LS. Ins a chevy blazer I would of had them set up for spl.

But i am not going to keep going on w/ this bs so the end.-----------------------

That is pretty amazing huh, a 158.6 at the dash in a lincoln LS. Buddy, I will have to call you out on this one, you obviously are mistaken or you are using a low grade mic. Try it on an IASCA mic, that would be imposible to hit in a lincoln LS. If you would like I can give you proof of my statement, he just went to a show last night (yes a circuit show, not a parking lot show) and hit 149.8 Amazing as it sounds a W7 can really do that. But you can believe what you want, The fact of the matter is, I have been designing systems for a living for 8 years now (not just "working with" car audio). You can't BS me with a spl reading. I can prove my cars, they are documented. And P.S. in my last car (camaro) I had 1 12w7 in a sealed box and hit a 146 flat on the AudioControl 160db meter. And if you know your stereo, if you port and tune the enclosure there is a 3db gain, do the math (and that was a 12). :dj:
 
Bro, you can call me out all you want. This is just some internet bull:q:q:q:q. Just like you said
"You can think what you want" - Take your own advice. Are you saying it is impossible to hit 158 in an ls? If so you might want to think about a differnt career path as it is not impossible to hit anything in any car.
Second - These are not cheep mic's, not backyard mic's or radio shack mic's.. You don't know me so don't make assumptions.. Now before I Show any slips or sites that I am listed on, since it's imposible for me to hit 158 would you like to put money down on this????

Or how about this on Aug 28 come to south fla (mia) and wich with your own eyes. I see that you are from Saint Petersburg, well the show you guys have over there I think on the 14 or 21st hosted by the Car Show King will be in mia. again.

Like said before: you don't know me so don't think on your own abot someone. You don't know what's into my system or what I have really spent.
My system by the way has been tuned with a 10,000.00 Oscilloscope. I just may know what I am doing..?? I don't know I guess I am just a kid whit his little getto riged system that was done in the driveway that has no clue on what he is doing tuning or hooking up the system.

My whole point to this is "YOU DON'T KNOW ME, SO STOP MAKING ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT ME, ALL I WAS TRYING TO SAY FROM THE START IS IT'S A WAIST OF MONEY FOR THE W7'S ALL TOGETHER.. NO MATTER WEATHER THEY ARE IN A DIFFERNT CLASS OR NOT. W/ THE SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY SPENT ON THAT SAYSTEM i CAN MAKE A BETTER SYTEM."

Ohh ya, by the way what level of MECP are you?
STOP THE :bsflag: AND LET'S GET ON ABOUT THE LINCOLNS.
 
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS DAMN. LETS SEE A SHOWDOWN. PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTHS ARE. and lets see a DB drag
 
ok, we'll settle this like men!! You guys each send me a pair os your favorite subs of choice, and some ince amps to power them. Then I will decide which one is the best. Oh, and I won't be able to send the epuipment back to you, but hey, all in the name of internet flaming, right?
 
If you think that info is supposed to impress me, it doesn't. And yes I would be glad to send a couple of people down to embarrass you in Tampa at Divine Sounds. In your class you will get wasted by a couple of cars that my shop did. These cars own their classes (yes with W7's). Stick with your Circuit City equipment. Speaking of which, Best Buy and Circuit City installers are MECp certified also, not a real big accomplishment. Nothing you say impresses me. I deal with bigger and badder systems than what I see pictured in your photo garage. And yes w7's are more expensive than an L7 (I wonder why). Even our Kicker rep says that they are a sub that is a level above every sub out there right now. It is the flagship sub, but if all you are used to is that heavily distributed stuff like Kicker, you would not know that. As for the oscilloscope our shop owns one (again not impressed). It is not impossible to hit 158 in an LS, it is impossible to hit it with your system on a legit mic. But I am sure you know mics have gains as well, so you can make any number show up on a mic if you want. So the only way I will believe it is in Tampa, where I will see it with my own eyes. I will also see you get owned by every vehicle with 13w7's. Do you also know that 15's sound waves travel quite far, and to get the focal point to land on the dash of an LS is impossible. I don't doubt that your system is loud, but you obviously have never worked with JL. I see it everyday, I have worked with both from day 1. As for sound quality Mr. MECP, do you realize that a sound wave traveling off of a square cone is distorted from the second it rolls off? Simple knowledge. So in conclusion, I would love to see you at Divine, so I can show you the systems I am talking about. You might have a revelation.
 
Yes I have worked with JL.. Like said before: YOU DON'T KNOW ME. I happen to work a lilbit away from a JL Main building..... Miramar, FL .
Now you wan't to change your stories:
Try it on an IASCA mic, that would be imposible to hit in a lincoln LS
Now your saying
It is not impossible to hit 158 in an LS, it is impossible to hit it with your system on a legit mic.
Make your mind up!
You sure as hell sound like a JL Rep or The JL rep has done something to sure as hell make you mind set one one brand. There is always BIGER and better.
Oh by the way I don't see the kicker rep saying that as I do happen to know him. He resides over in orland right?? Always wares the kicker shirt that has the name earl on it?? His boss has a GMC With 2 Solo X 18" ??? Oh I am also sure that 2 JL w13 will wip the :q:q:q:q out of thoes.. Right?? I mean The 12x7 takes about 750wrms.. So I mean That :q:q:q:q will kill it since it is only 1 inch bigger... I mean come on man give it up. you making youself sound like an ass.
Just shut up about your JL and go on.........

Also you will see me thoes dates.... Look for a GREEN LS turning heads.....
 
There is more than 1 kicker rep genius, and no his name is John Shneid. And he has an suv (i believe a sequoia) with 4 l7 15's and it is a joke compared to our demo vehicle (4 13w7's). By the way is that box in your pictures sealed??? I don't know what to think, because if it is sealed, you are nuts to enter an spl contest with a sealed enclosure. If it is ported the rec. air space for the 15L7 is 6 cu.ft. which we all know is the size of your entire trunk. So I am thinking sealed, if so, I wouldnt be surprised if our stock 1-160 car beats you. Only 1 13w7 ported Blue explorer. His name is Frank Grecco you will see him there. But unfortunately you wont be in the same class to get embarrassed by him, no, instead you will be in the class with our SPL demo Tahoe....your 158db, good luck buddy, you will need it. P.S. if you blow a sub at the competition, don't worry, there is a circuit city right down the street, they have your L7's on sale right now by one get one half off. Oh yeah...what shop do you work for, are you an authorized JL Audio dealer??? I know why you chose kicker though, they do have a pretty good employee accomidations program. I can't blame you for that. I think I have said all I need to say until you show up at Divine Sounds. This was taken way out of context....and soon you will see that a 151 with 1 13w7 is very very possible. :waving:

Also did not wan't to inculde this.... But no one was talking about SQ... If I was it would not be a 15 , 13 , 12.. But yet a 10. That where are the sq is at but you are MR. car audio so you shold know that. Also JL is better then kicker for sq. - no questions asked. but that is nothing to deal w/ this topic!

1) Circuit City does not have the 15" L7.more then one kicker rep.. BUT there is 1 to each state. Humm... If you had kicker then you know this. Something they all tell you.
3) Have any pics of this SPL demo??? :gr_hail: Let's see it.. :GotPics: Or is there no such thing? Just want to see who's going to blow me away. How
2) It's funny you say that there is more then one kicker rep. Yes there is may subs, what amps, what kind of charging system? You know since I only spent about 1,000.00 to get my charging system to stay at 14.0 v and not drop. (by the way this is all at whole sale price.) Or is it the stock charging system? Last I checked GM car trucks and SUV's Draw ALOT of power stock so a GM SUV might not have been the dest bet unless you spent ALOT of money on the charging system.
4) No we don't deal w/ JL just happen to install some of there :q:q:q:q because people at sound advice suck ball at installing.
5) Just found that you can't do math also.... 4 * 13 = 52" last I checked my class goes to 31" of sub... DAMM Not going to beable to get blowen away by this. OR maby you don't know so much about car audio.?
6) If you know anything about car audio... Once you get to the 150's it's hard to go past that w/out spending alot of money.. Adding the other 2 13W7 only gave you maby another 5db MAX... Right????
7) Yes my box is sealed. Can't get the 6 cu. ft. FOR each sub :mad: Now it was down to how can I get the most prussure to the front windshild?? So after some thought and design and talking to buddies that do just boxes we came up w/ my box. The only problem I seem to have is ther front windshild seems to almost want to pop out of it's place. Now I don't know but I guess that I must not have enough prussure going to the front.
Got any ideas on what I should do to get more? I mean you are the expert..
As for entering into comps w/ a sealed No difference as ported but if you are doing outlaw then yes. But for non outlaw it is all about the design of the box. Yes ported may give me a slight bit more prussure but can't do that in a lincoln ls.
8) I don't tell people where I work. Sorry it is just something I have done for awile. There are so many reasons for this.

One more thing, are you calling auto page alarms high end? I thought DEI was a litt better... Why don't you have DEI since you are a somewhat HIGH end car audio shop? Would would think you have some of the best stuff..

This is the last time I will post in this thread because I can see I am not getting anywhere with you. I dig your self in there holes thinking you know what you are talking about buy you are just making yourself look stupied.

I will be waiting for these pics thoe......
