the type x is comparable to the w7 and dosent require a massive amplifier or box ,not to mention they are about 1/3rd the price

and stay away from places like bestbuy/circutcity/sixth ave elec,etc they are all way overpriced,ur best bet is going to a real car audio place and stay away from the kenwood/pioneer amps/the old rockford stuff is decent.and never be fooled by peak power ratings.rms ratings are more important then peak.u can buy an amp with a 800 watt peak rating but only have a 200 watt rms,were an amp with a 400 watt rms and 600 peak ratings will blow away the other amp hands down
W7 = overpriced.
