Silver Member Username: MystrePemberville, Ohio USA Post Number: 121 Registered: Sep-05 | Oh my goodness!!!!!!!!! I just and finally got my subs hooked up and working. All I have to say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! OK, here is my history of car audio: 2 12" or 15" Pyramid subs hooked to an LA Sound Laguna. My box was so big that it took up the hatch and backseat of a Chey Sh!tvette. Then I had 2 JBL 12s, then I had 2 MTX Thunder 5000 12 powered by an MMTX amp. Then I had Audioboms, nuff said. Last I had these:http://cgi.ebay.com/2-JL-Audio-12W6-alternative-subwoofers-12W6AE_W0QQitemZ58759 26596QQcategoryZ18803QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem powered by a JL 500/1. Now I have 2 JL Audio W3V2s powered by a 500/1 and this is THE BEST system that I have ever had. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO SUGGESTED JL AUDIO AND SPECIAL THANKS TO JL AUDIO. I used to think that JL was overrated. Now I know. |

Silver Member Username: MystrePemberville, Ohio USA Post Number: 122 Registered: Sep-05 | MO, I have a 2002 Dodge Stratus. They are in a sealed box for now. I am going to try and get a JL HO Wedge as soon as I can afford it or a ported box. I will post some pics when I have everything done and I will post some for now of the subs. Thanks. |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 2786 Registered: Sep-04 | JL audio isnt even going to be overpriced in the near future.... thats my favorite mainstream company. |

Bronze Member Username: JcashPost Number: 23 Registered: Dec-05 | Re audio is the new overpriced company lol |
|
Silver Member Username: MystrePemberville, Ohio USA Post Number: 123 Registered: Sep-05 | Yeah, they get loud but I'm sure that I can get about 5-10 more dB with that HO Wedge and about 3-5dB with a ported box. |

Gold Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 1412 Registered: Sep-05 | 10db is a REAL big jump, lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 2798 Registered: Sep-04 | yeah 10 db is like going from 2 10s on 1000s to 16 10s on 1000w lol or from 2 10s on 1000w to 2 10s on 8 thousand watts lol.. approximations of course. |

Bronze Member Username: Mtite_dabeastPost Number: 30 Registered: Apr-06 | so 500/1 = 500 watts? When you buy JL, are you purchasing quality or a better bang? I mean 500 watss for the price, idk about that. I've never had JL anything, just lanzar subs, pyramid subs, and a soundstorm amp 1600 watts. Now I have a hifonics BXi2006d 2000 watts rms. I want subs, JL or Hifonics just something good. Will 2 JL 15"s with 500 watts handle that 2000 or do i sound like an idoit? |

Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 1733 Registered: Jun-05 | the any of the slash series amps are very much worth thete money they are underrated and they can play what there rated at, at any ohm level 1-4 so it works out great |

Silver Member Username: MrmikelazottIndependence, Oregon Post Number: 110 Registered: Dec-05 | where can i buy one of those HO wedge boxes? |
|
Silver Member Username: NemenPost Number: 776 Registered: Dec-05 | i've seen some ho wedge boxes online but i think you hav to contact jl for that one but i dont think they sell just boxes. |
|
Silver Member Username: MrmikelazottIndependence, Oregon Post Number: 111 Registered: Dec-05 | i know, i want the HO212R-W3v2, the HO wedge with the two 12w3v2s. do i need to buy it from them, or can i go to my local car-toys or other authorized dealer to have them order it, or is there some place online i can buy it. please let me know. thanks for all your help. |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 5784 Registered: Dec-04 | you can't buy them online, JL doesnt sell them seperately, and the only place you might find one is on a forum or maybe ebay if your lucky. JL only sells loaded boxes thats how they make more money. |
|
Silver Member Username: NemenPost Number: 779 Registered: Dec-05 | lol i think were confused james he wants to get the ho box loaded with 12w3v2's i though he meant just the box. yeah you can contact jl and get a ho loaded box from them. |

Silver Member Username: MrmikelazottIndependence, Oregon Post Number: 113 Registered: Dec-05 | do you think i could order it from car-toys, or would they charge me an arm and a leg? thanks again |
