Haven't done nothing much to BMW, looking to buy new amp in june.

Will JL audio 13W7 take 2,5kw RMS ?

 

lol... Did audio for my friend's scooter. Still need to finish up: add bass filter for woofer, seal all the edges, add frame for HU, cover with carpet and maybe port it.

I have the same mono block as you, just in the 4 channel model.. I absolutely love it, I've had it for the last 6 years and it has seen many builds.

So i decided to sell 13w7 and got 10" woofer instead. This will more likely to be SQ build. New woofer is Domotec ms810 comes with 200rms.

Also got box ready for it

(video is in estonian) got it with $40 and ita incredible how accurate this thing is even in ported enclosure.
