That's one long ass run-on sentence you got there. Anyways, getting LOW AND DEEP will depend on your box. As for a H/O alternator, contact Excessive Amperage, Singer, DC Power, Ohio Gen, etc. Do NOT get an ebay alternator!

If your only goal is saving weight, the X isn't gonna be much, if any lighter than the JL.

But yes, they will play as low as you let them.

In all likelihood they are. I don't know a weight on the X woofers but my Zv3 15s weigh ~67lbs each and the JLs are 53lb. Since the motors are so similar between the X & Z, I'm betting the 12 weighs 58-60lbs.

W7 is 52lbs and the X15 is 48lbs...

Either way, the x will play just as low and loud as the w7. However, I don't think it would be worth the trade off in weight.

You said you have 2 JL 1200.1s. Just run those.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

Get you new max dimensions for a box, 4 13.5" subs will have much more displacement than 4 12s.
