I CANT BELIEVE YOU ARE USING THOSE THREE NAMES IN THE SAME SENTENCE....

JL and PG make very good respectable products......

Boss on the other hand is absolute garbage.....

JL Audio and PG have nothing in common with Boss.  Out of the remaining two I would (all things being equal, they never are) buy the JL amp.  PG makes some good amps, but they have a mid-line (i cant really call it lowend in good conscience) that cannot compare with the JL stuff (all top notch) so know what your getting.   But really it comes down to this:  You dropped the money on the W7's now drop the $$$ on a quality amp.

Boss=Junk
PG=Good
JL=Don't know anything about them

All I can say is, whatever you do buy, BUT IT FROM AN AUTHORIZED DEALER.
