idk for sure how they would compare i have never heard a w7 in person i am just going on what a few people have told me that have heard my system and heard a w7....regardless though almost every car audio company has a top of line sub that sounds amazing...and most people cant tell the difference if u compare the best to the best....all i know is when my sub was at full power it was obnoxious...u litterally could not be drinking anything in the car while it was pounding because you could feel i the liquid shaking in your throat.
