I had 2 12 inch W3's before I decided to get the JL W7 and let me tell you this: this sub is the hardest hitting 12 inch sub that I have ever heard, and the sub isn't even broken in yet. (I know it's a myth that the sub has to be broken in, but for this kind of money I just wanna play it safe). I'm also not pushing the sub to it's limit. I have the JL Audio JX1000/1D amp pushing 750 watts @ 3 ohms. This thing handles the lows like nothing, every bass note is heard and it definitely shakes every mirror in the car. If you have the money for it, I say go for it. You won't be disappointed.

I Always have been a fan of JL I knew the W7 is the top of the line. If you are willing to spend the money, and are ready to start tightening everything In your car than buy it!!! You will not be disappointed trust me! I have the JL 1200/1 HD amp connected to it and wow this thing is a demon!!!!! Thanks Sonic for the best price, quality and very fast shipping!!!!!

Looks nice works good but the box broke right around where the speaker mounts. Not stong at all I would have just purchased the speaker if i had to do it again.

JL Audio HO112R-W7AE is the best subwoofer matching with enclosure engineered and build to almost precision. I have this sub in my 2011 BMW X6M powered by an Audison LRX1.2K 1 Ch 1200 W x 1 (4Ω)
1 Ch 2000 W x 1 (2Ω) &1 Ch 3000 W x 1 (1Ω) so do the math for clean power 3Ω. this setup is a beast and a darling princess when you want it to be.

This set up is a steal at under $900. Hell, it's a steal at under $1,200. SonicElectronix came through for me when I didn't have a ton of money to work with.
