    Default JL 13W7

    so I am looking to replace this sub for a boston acoustics SPG555.

    Should I try to sell it outright or find someone to trade?

    The car only gets driven on weekends. the Sub has been in the car for 2 and a half months. Usually the stereo is off or at volumes where I can hear my cell phone or talk to a passenger in a normal voice. I would rather listen to the engine when driving. The sub is in perfect shape and I will warranty it for 30 days if you want.

    I have been to a couple shows with it where I will turn the radio up to enjoy outside the car. The sub is set to listen to music the way it is supposed to sound.... Rap has never been played through it. i was a studio musician(bass guitar) for awhile and get annoyed with obnoxious bass.

    Freemans/Tweeter sells them for 999 and I am selling it for 699.

    you can get a brand new 13W7 for less than 700. No it wont have a warranty, but in all reality this one doesnt either.

    Yes...u can buy a brand new one for 700 but that's from ebay...ebay and online merchandise are sent to online companies from manufacturers because they don't meet the standards that manufactures themselves have set for their products. Thats why online companies and stuff can sell stuff for so cheap. Where did u actually buy the sub from??? Online or from an actual retailer? After what i said u probly wanna say retailer but being truthful....where??

    I got it from Freemans. I am not sure if you have those there[atlanta] but they have many stores here in the Charlotte area.

    Anyways.... I am not wanting to go back and forth about what the sub is worth (not that you are doing that, yougn). I would just prefer that if people think it it too much that they shop somewhere where they feel more comfortable.

    Here is a link http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_4008.html this is the cheapest price I could find. If you want cheap then go there.

    fair price for a used 13W7 is around 500 in perfect condition.

    When buying online most places are perfectly legit. They are unauthorized dealers though because they sell them well under minimum manufacturer prices. They can do this because of several things:
    1. very low overhead, they dont have to pay many, if any, employees. Also a large garage can usually hold most of their stock instead of expensive shop space.
    2. buying B stock and refurbs from the manufacturer, like stated above
    3. High shipping and handling costs, to cover a good portion of what they 'lose' in the advertised price.


    R Rated, I'm not knocking you, just a little info.
