me personally would run the w7, i'll pay the extra money for the quality. you could always run 2 kicker L7 or 1 jl 13w7

It is fully regulated but it could be fully regulated putting out 1600w at 1.5-4 ohms. I totally agree with sedate about mtx being even considered an upgrade. If you want to upgrade then look into some of Robert Zeffs amp aka Arc Audio and Zapco. Also Audison, Alpine, Eclipse, and McIntosh.

I don't want to start a "you're wrong, I'm right" thread but how can you put the Alpine and Eclipse amps in the same category as McIntosh.  I think that's a hangin' offense in some countries. lol.

I would agree that the Zapco, Audison, and McIntosh would be upgrades, but by very little.  In the sense of unregulated amplifiers MTX can provide more power, but I'm not sure the above model would do it.  And in the case of SPL, who cares what it sounds like, the idea is mind-numbing bass. lol

I never said they were in the same class. I just consider them an upgrade.

yes that was the point of me getting mtx amps because they push more watts. I would have to say that out of the amps i've dealt with JL audio is one of the best but the only downfall is they only push 1000 watts period.
