Question JL 8W7 Wedge box in a Crx ?

Hi, Im thinking of getting a lil sub for my crx.
Should an 8W7 in a JL wedge box suffice ?
How much power does this lil sub take ?
What amp should I get ?

Any info would be appreciated.

heres a pic of the sub in question and my Crx.

Rob... didn't you try an 8 a few years ago and weren't happy with how it came out? (yes, I know it was a piece of crap from eD.. but you were trying to over power the hell out of it) I'd suggest trying a 10 if I were you

As I recall several pages of pre purchase posturing, several pages of post purchase build (very complicated box), and several disillusioned pages of sub post mortem

the JL is a better made sub (if for no other reason than it is pricier...) and it should be louder and it can consume more power

nice build Yuli... show before go!
