JasonsKreationz Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I've always been a JL Audio guy and have owned several over the years. I'm currently planning to get two 12" W3V3-2 subs for my truck. I am limited to space because they must fit in the space under my rear seats which is about 1.5-1.5 CF per side. I plan build a sealed fiberglass box to house the two subs. However, since I've been on this site, I've noticed that nobody talks about JL Audio. After some searches I've noticed that a lot of people don't even like JL Audio. Being that I haven't really been in the audio scene for over 10 years, I'm wondering what is good nowadays. I've already got a JL Audio amp that I will be using to push the subs. It's a 1000.1 rated at 1000X1 RMS @ 1 ohm. So I want to run whatever subs I get at 1 ohm to maximize on the power from the amp. So what subs would you get if you were me? Thanks guys! Here's a video of a truck just like mine with a box built like I am going to do. What are your thoughts? 05 Ram 1500 4x4 Hemi - 22x11 Fuel Hostage wrapped in 37" Nitto Mud Grappler - 3" Dual Flow Master w/ X pipe - 10" lift - Alpine 103BT Head unit - JL Audio J2-320.4 - JL Audio J2-1000.1 - (2) 12" JL Audio W3V3 - (2) sets of JL Audio components - 5% tint - 6000K HID - CAI - and more....

bumonskateboard6 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 There are a lot of good brands out there that are smaller than JL, the main reason people around here don't like JL is it's pretty overpriced and it tends to perpetuate stupid car audio rumors, and is pushed heavily by shops that have incompetent salesmen. Personally I run DC audio, i really like them and have had them running the past 2 years and the subs still work great.

Low voltage doesn't blow amps. That's a myth. A router that does the sub holes makes rounded edges also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonsKreationz Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Well, I'm 100% open for suggestions. I'm just going off of knowledge gained back in 97-98. Back then, everyone wanted JL. I know you guys are the experts when it comes to car audio so I'm all ears... 05 Ram 1500 4x4 Hemi - 22x11 Fuel Hostage wrapped in 37" Nitto Mud Grappler - 3" Dual Flow Master w/ X pipe - 10" lift - Alpine 103BT Head unit - JL Audio J2-320.4 - JL Audio J2-1000.1 - (2) 12" JL Audio W3V3 - (2) sets of JL Audio components - 5% tint - 6000K HID - CAI - and more....
