2 things, I'd like to know where you're getting a w7 that only costs 70 bucks more than a w6, and proporly powered saying the w7 had a little more punch than the w6 is an understatement to say the least...

Just picked up the 10W7 Pro Wedge at Natural Sound in Kitchener for $699 plus tax...came to $804.
They had a 10W6v2 in a slightly different JL sealed enclosure right beside it for $629 plus tax.

Wow, only $700 for a single 10" driver in a sealed enclosure. I mean how is JL able to stay in business with low pricing like that?! (yeah yeah I know W7 R&D was expensive yada yada whatever..........and the funny part is that that price is a great deal for that considering MSRP)

Yeah I know it's been argued to death already but it still makes me chuckle.

Might sound silly but when I saw that $699, and considering what I've seen JL Stealth Boxes sell for ($999 or more) and the MSRP of W7 drivers, I actually wondered if that was for the woofer box alone, with no speaker included

Brand spanking new. I've dealt with the guys at Natural Sound for a whole bunch of years. They would make the consumer very aware if they were selling a refurb or factory second.

I guess I just got a really good deal!
