ONLY go with JL AUDIO Subs - low power consumption and quality performance bass. JL SUBS are the most efficient ones out there.

ONLY go with JL AUDIO Subs - low power consumption and quality performance bass. JL SUBS are the most efficient ones out there. TRUE. My two JL 12's in a closed boxed destroyed every Kicker set up at that comp. Ultimately EVERYTHING depends on what you want to do. If you just want something to make your music bump then buying some lower priced(and lower quality) would be fine. If you want something to rattle your ear drums and possibly dabble in some sound comps then buying higher quality subs AND speakers is the way to go. I'd say just start buy getting new speakers in your current set up. and seeing how that "hits" you -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2

Buddy of mine spent two hours reading on construction of box for air space then spent 15 minutes building this eye sore of a box but it slammed haha. It hit 145 every time. I dont think he's trying to go SPL. But if he was i'd say digital designs is the way to go w a M3 amp. I need to ask him what the 8" 3500 version are hitting. & my setup isnt for spl by any means but i need to meter it just for the fun of it one day. |
