Big Joe Unregistered guest | I would have to say that JL 8W7 is the best you could get. They are great speakers. |
|
Robert J Unregistered guest | thanks guy i'm going to get the jl, but i got one more question,will the jl 8w7 be able to give me a 2ohm load? |
|

Silver Member Username: Its_bacon12Post Number: 293 Registered: Dec-03 | yea i would advise turning the gain to a little less than half or so because you'll be pumping 450w rms to it and its only reccomended to handle around 300-400 |
