i work at circuit city doing car installations and trust me, bass tubes may be louder then the basslink but the bass they make sounds crappy, the link sounds better ecspecially since your not a crazy bass head, this will even out your system perfectly.

Get more power of save some money and get a cheaper sub. You will never get full excursion from a W7 with 500 watts.

Agreed. W6v2's and W7's are power hungry. Try the 1000/1 with that dude if you can afford it.

I agree I heard the W7 powered off both the 500/1 and the 1000/1 huge difference the W7 was never meant to run off only 500 watts.

It took more than a month to decide, but I finally did it. I changed my mind again in the last minute. I got 1 12 inch W3v2 instead and a different alpine v12 amp. I would have stuck with the W0's but read up on it and it seems that it has reliability issues, plus I just hate its design(that big sphere on the top)

I gotta say.. its pretty loud. Whats weird though is that you can almost feel it as much on the outside as you can on the inside.

I got a question though, does anyone here own an eclipse HU? if so what settings do you have it(Non Fader, SVC, bass, treble etc.) The installer told me to keep the bass at -1 since I got subs now, is that the norm?

Just save up some money and buy quality speakers. My friend has one eight and it rips. I like his setup better than my two 12's.
