JL subs question

Would 3 JL 10w3v2s hit harder than a W7??
Also, would 2 JL 12W3s be almost as good as a W7?

Must be a newbie...but i'll explain

The 3 jl w3's is 3*3=9 (like a w9) would in fact hit harder than a w7

The 2 w3's which is 2*3=6 hits exactly like a w6

Also does anyone think JL is a good choice for this dude?

Where'd you get that formula?

My 10w3's blow away my old 10w5's.

And yes I think JL Audio would be a fine choice.

Fishy, your W3's hit harder cause you got a pussified amp

w 0's kinda suck, im no speaker wiz but im pretty sure 1 W7 will crush a WO

jon always says double the surface area its around 3db increase

say having 3 increases it 5 db well im guessin a W7 outdoes a WO by a lot more than 5

1000000 sony xplodes will be louder than 1 w7 but it will sound like crap

just get 1 w6v2 or something

this forum is filled with people (including me) that try to buy a bunch of average subs to out do great ones and it doesnt really ever work and then you end up regretting it when in doubt always try for quality over quantity

if you want something that gets rowdy just save up

you already have a good amp
save up for a tdx or titanium or RE XX.X

big d, that is about the stupidest equation for calculating SPL for Jl subs I've ever seen. The 13W7 has the surface area of two 10W3s in itself, and a LOT more excursion than them. The fact that is has a very strong motor, high linear excursion, and a lot of surface area gives it an advantage. 13W7 will beat the W3s, whether it's 3 10s or 2 12s. 2 12s hit harder than 3 10s.

Whats up with this forum today?

They're comin outa the woodwork I guess.

But at least I learned that a pro MOS-2050 is "pussiefied" which I guess is a direct reflection of its "stiffening" factor.

:-)

[note] btw, Big D, 10w3d2's have about 50% more linear excursion than 10w5's. W5's just happened to be JL's flagship sub 15 years ago.

Well then, Lets just go back to the future and test it, then go back the the past future with a w7. I'd like to power that with around 1.21 gigawatts runnin at 1 ohm.


My point here is..the answer is ambigous so is the question. This dude probably never even heard of ohms law and he is buying JL top of line stuff. WHY? Because someone at tweeter told him JL is the best yadda yadda yadda. Yea it may be awsome stuff, but this guy only cares about subs "hittin hard" WTF does that mean? In audio forms slang like that should be banned. To have good sound you gotta start with good brains. Negative in that dept.

Fishy, I hear ya on that amp, just don't get the JL W0's cause they don't make any audible sound
