They will be louder but the SQ will be horrendous compared to some W0's.

The amp needs to be 300 watts rms, as long as the ohms match up.
To be perfectly aunist, both are bottom line subs. Neither are that great.

Well i have 2 rockford hx2's and they pound really nice and they are 1000 peak watts and about 500 rms so if u spent 200 bucks on the other rockfords for about 50 bucks more u can get alot better or did you spend 200 for both? but those hx2's are really nice

Lol, good luck finding hx2's.
That's what I have, and you won't find a much better RF sub, apart from the power series.
I think you might be able to find hx2's for like $125 a piece off the net some where.:-)

are hex2's supposed to behard to find, here they are ( http://www.woofersetc.com/product.asp?0=451&1=459&3=1484 ) but it doenst matter i believe p3's are louder and sound better, could have been the boxes the hx2's were in

Lol, mine are 10's, and only have 400 watts to each, and are pretty loud.:-)
To give you an idea, they beat a pair of l5's.
Yes, they are pretty hard to find, I believe RF stopped making them.
Lol, they want way to much money for them. I got mine for $99 a piece.

Are you talking about JLw0's, or what. At first you said w0's, now you are saying w4's... what is a w4, I didn't even know they made a w4. Are you talking about w3v2's?
You could go with 1 Atlas, but I don't think it will beat 2 w3's, if that's what he's running.

Well, i could save up more... Those two 12" Rockford Fosgate P112S4 Punch are $199.99 cdn with box and i can get two 10" Infinity 1030W for $359.99 cdn without box. I can build my own box for cheap tho. I wasnt talking about getting jl's.. Subfanatic was saying how his 15" jl w0 was really good. What should i buy, if the Infinity's are just a little better than the Rockfords i will get the rf's, but if the Infinity's are way better, ill save up and get them.
