JL AUDIO W7 12 vs. ALPINE TYPE R 12 MAX SPL SHOWDOWN

Комедия

I made this video just for fun to see how the alpine type R stacks up against the jl audio w7. I have each subwoofer hooked up to its own amp and that amp is the hifonics brutus elite 1700.1D BE35.
I also have 2 extra batteries to make sure those amps are getting enough juice to push these subs to the max !
Enjoy !

    You need some readings for an SPL showdown. You were running both of them at the same time. How is this an SPL showdown?

    There is no comparison, the JL takes the win. I have yet to hear a sub that gets as loud as the W7 without compromising SQ. I have the 13.5 and that alone in my F-150 gets louder then my old pair of Rockford P3 15s. I never got why there is so many haters on W7, tbh majority of them just hate because they can't afford it...

    Kyle Knight for 700 I would never buy a w7, they arent worth it, not to say it isnt a good sub, but jl is way too proud of themselves. The type r will push 1500 rms all day without rebuilding it, and for 140, its one of the best subs for the price. But the type r has one design flaw, both coils run out 1 side of the spider, making one side stiffer than the other, which means its prone to failure at max excursion, but as I have said, it takes a lot of power to get it to bottom out, so normally its good, you just cant really compete with them in the heavier stuff, where they would otherwise belong.

    These two subs couldn't sound more different in person. Proud w7 owner, my boy has those type R 12s. IMO the Rs don't sound natural at all. Worst part is upper end around 65hz-80hz, punchy bass isn't smooth, material of cone partly to blame as you can hear the plastic sound on harder punches. Impressed with the lower end, thats Def where these subs shine. JL on the other hand is smooth and natural sounding throughout all frequencies. Even the punchy bass wasn't lost when going ported, whereas the alpine IMO just sounded bad at 45hz and up in the ported. Coming from a lifelong alpine fan, long before I got into jl. I love the older alpine decks, and their components, namely the type r 6.5s are very impressive, but Their subs have continued to worsen over the years. For the record I was comparing two type r 12s in a ported box (1.5 per chamber) vs one 10w7 in the jl HO box (1.25). Again, just my opinion.

    This comparison is stupid how could you tell anything when both are playing at same time? Must be comparing power only not sound. And to Slick S I agree with you on lots of points especially the old school Alpines the 7909 is legendary I loved the 7390 back in the tape days. And I agree that W7 sound better but they should look at price tag! I think JL is over priced and over rated! If one is talking about SPL Competitions NO ONE RUNS JL ANYTHING! For SQ yeah there alright no better then alright but not worth anything close to there price tag! For that kind of money there is far superior subs for even less lots less! I've been installing for years first time I heard of them was I had to build a box for (3) 8w6s first gen and after I was done next day I went and bought (3) 12w6s I loved them back then they were expensive but now they have lost there minds! DC Audio, Crossfire, Hutchinson just quickly of the the top of my head all have far better subs for less! And what they put out depends on what you put them in sealed or ported what they are tuned to etc. But I must say JL has the BEST shallow mounts I've ever heard! I have friends who are at opposite side of spectrum I have a friend who runs all Mosconi power to Morel Supremos and another friend who just dropped $12,000 on (4) 18" Pride Audio subs powered by 56,000 watts of B2 power. So I know people on both sides of car audio which doesn't make me anybody but I went to school for mobile electronics installation in 1995 so I've been around some. But this is just my 2 cents.

    I currently have 2 type R 12s sitting by the wayside because I upgraded to a set of Incriminator audio Death Row 12"s that hit harder and sound better than my type Rs ever could. I'd argue that my DR's probably hit harder than a set of overpriced JL w7's. W7s can take 1k rms while my DR's can take 1500rms each and cost 1/3 the price of a w7. IA next step up is the Death Penalty that has the same xmax as a w7 and still costs half the price with twice the power handling. JL truly is overpriced crap.

Alot less sloppy bass than the MTX 9500 and the Kicker Solo Baric L7s. A few years later came the stupid expensive JL audio W7 12inch sub and the almost as expensive Rockford Fosgate's top T2 12inch sub.

    Its pretty clear that people are partial to the brands they like and know of but for those that dont know these are both very good subs . The alpine will handle more power overall but the JL has a more forgiving spider compliance and surround to accommodate its cooling factor. In this video, it's like comparing a sundown vs. An orion hcca. I'm currently using a Type R for my test bench in a sealed box around 1.4 cubes give or take and it get low with 400 watts rms . Got it from a friend of mine who had it wired @ 8 ohms yeah 8 ohms lol to an Orion hcca 5k . That amp does 3k at 4 ohms on a test bench at 14.4 volts lol just to give you a ball park of what it does at an 8ohm load. That one Type R could be heard a block away in his van in the sealed box and the gain was just shy of being all the way down. So yeah the type R s love power and the blow because of too less power or bad signal such as clipping. Just to get you heads thinking. Excuse any typos. But you get the picture.

    The JL is only meant to run 3-1.5 ohms unless they use a slash or HD JL Audio mono amp to push the W7 it won't be optimal to be fair they both should be ran in their optimal 3ft enclosure and turning . I run Hertz,Audison,JL,Brax and Helix audio. All quality equipment ,the saying ( You get what you pay for)is very true. I been building systems almost 30 years now and have yet to find better audio quality than the 5 audio designer's I use. Well Brax and Helix are sister company's so they may only count as one . He'll come to think of it I believe Hertz and Audison are sister company's as well. Alpine isn't bad if you buy the European built equipment. Then the price doubles., But it will last for more than a few minutes, hours,days,years. You never know. Back when Alpine and Motorola where partners they built quality . Now it's more quantity and cheaper parts (hence ) failure.

    JL is better overall but the alpine is better when cost is factored in.

    I would like to see a Rockford Fosgate 12 in there to see how it fairs against those two beasts, I love the alpine type R pro connect boxes, they are so sexy.

    I remember my first beer. Hopefully this guy has either gotten better at audio or left the game. Based on his short vague intro and the fact the JL isn’t mounted properly you can see its frame moving from the baffle,guy has more Money the audio experience and knowledge
