Hey guys im lookin into gettin a box installed in the back but i have a few questions to make sure i dont mess stuff up.
1)Whats the difference between vented or sealed porting?
2)Are the JL Audio 10 inch W7s as good as people say they are?
3) Will the W7s fit in this box?

1. Vented box will produce a more deeper bass.
2. Yes JL 10W7 is as good as they say they are. The 8W7 hit hard also.
3. ? Call the company and ask them. I really dont know. It should fit, but call to make sure.
4. I like JL Amps. The 10w7 needs 500w RMS, so get the 1000/1 to power both of them.

get the JL "bass knob" so you can easily adjust the bass to your preference

lol i didn't click your link before i responded. i didnt realize you were gonna put 2 w7s back there. thats gonna be over the top. in that case you'll need a bigger amp than the one i posted. here is the link for the specs on the w7.
http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_subs_enclusure.php?series_id=5

it says they require 1.25 cubic feet, and your box says it has 1.25 cubic feet per side. i would still email the manufacturer to make sure the w7s will fit because they are so deep/tall.

i'm gonna do the same setup i posted earlier with 1 w7.
