JL Audio 13W7 13-1/2-Inch W7 Subwoofer
- When I turn it up, the cone looks like it's moving at least an inch. Its ready to good and loud music.
- Physically and visually this product presents itself powerfully, with a strong frame and a thick beefy cone.
- This speaker sounds great even thoni order the wrong ohm voice coil it still hits hard and sounds great.
- The dual voice coils allow a single sub to be wired in either series or parallel for impedance.
- The dual voice coils up right theres several different ways to pull different ohm loads.

- Perfect design for my car 2012 toyota sienna rear speakers, couldn't be better!
- I use this product for a project, because of the size & material long lasting delivering a very good sound clear & powerful.
- The cones are made of a nice durable-feeling polymer/plastic material that feels like it will not age poorly like many speaker cones.
- Looked and felt cheap. No weight. Doubted they were even kicker.
- For the price you cant go wrong its just super light weight and does not feel sturdy. Be careful not to drop.

What customers say about "Connectivity"
JL Audio 13W7 13-1/2-Inch W7 Subwoofer
- I had 2 x15 sundowns nd this sub hits harder than both of them i have this sub hooked up to a 1200 hd jl amp awesome!!!!
- Amp is legit! Got it connected to one JL 12 W7 and it pounds! Grade A!
- Perfectly connected to my speakers, the bass is simply gorgeous, I bounce in the car!
- With this subwoofer, my cheap speakers sound like expensive and high-quality, it's just a great combination.
- I connected the subwoofer to my system without any problems, the sound noticeably improved.
Kicker 11S15L72 Car Audio Solobaric L7 Square 15" Sub Dual 2 Ohm 2000W
- I have one in my Chevy Equinox paired with a 1000 watt rms amp and it's loud with the amp turned up half way.
- I am running a kicker ZXS1500.1 Amp and the speaker takes every bit of power from it. been running it for about a year now and havent had any problems.
- I am running the sub off of a rockford fosgate power t1001bd-cp amlpifier. the amp's birth certificate rated it and 1456 watts rms @2ohms.
- Love the kicker L7's, I am running one L7 with memphis 1500 D.. pushing 152 db. Plenty of trophys to prove it... Have not seen a speaker yet in its class to beat it.
- Only issue I know they tend to have with the 11S15L7 models are that the tinsel lead sometimes breaks free from the terminal.
