I think the question was which one of these two subs only, we would go with for sound quality. So the answer is simple. No ifs, ands or buts. There was no mention of what sub we would buy if we had $300, $400, $500, $600. Just what of those two we would choose. So under those terms, if I had nothing else to choose from I would take the JL, or even a few of them.

Subwoofers don't put out anything. I think you are referring to sound pressure level (SPL). It depends on the car, enclosure, subwoofer, power, etc....
There is a lot of information to post about it. Search around car audio forums...
The JLAudio 12W7 needs about 750watts RMS to run good...

check out kicker.com i think it takes about 2 weeks just to break-in an L7 woofer. it also uses a small box (.66).
for the price of 1 JL you could buy 2 10" L7 and a sealed box.
i myself will be installing 2 10" L7"s with a pwr 1000.2 rockford fosgate i my max.
good luck on your pick.
