From a sound quality perspective I always prefer the W6. The W7 is great if you have not only enough power but also enough air space. The W3's are just average.

Here are the studio images and description as promised.

Nothing makes us more proud at Al & Ed's than when a client demands that we completely remove his factory Bose Audio system and upgrade it. Here is what we did to make this Porsche sound awesome.

In order to properly integrate with the factory radio and to have full control of all the speakers we installed, an Audio Control LC8I and two Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.2 EQ Processors were integrated into the car. After that, the front and rear Bose speakers we replaced with 2 sets of Focal 165KRX3 component speakers. These 3-way speakers sound incredible and were installed in the factory front and rear locations. No cutting was necessary.

The owner of this car likes bass! And we wanted to make sure that we gave him what he likes. Two JL Audio 12W6V2D4 woofers were installed in a custom enclosure in the rear hatch cargo area. Now that all the speakers and processors were in place we wanted to make sure that we could maximize the performance of each speaker by giving them enough power to perform. Four Alpine PDX series amplifiers were installed in the car totaling over 2,400 watts of power!

Inspired by the black leather and gloss black paint of the car we continued with that theme to showcase the amplifiers and woofers in the cargo area.

Holy shit that looks clean! You guys especially did an amazing job with the trunk, insane!!!
