I am trying to decide whether to use alpine type r or jl w3. I would be using two of them in my boat and they would be 10's. I am not looking for sound quality out of the sub but rather maximum loudness. I have a jl 500/1 amp to run the subs. Which sub would give me a louder bass?

right now i have 2 10 jl w3v2s in my car running on 600rms and i can say they are not worth getting at all. i would defiantly go type r.

Well should i go with a completly different sub. The reason i thought these is because the max depth of the sub has to be 6 7/8". I am trying to get the loudest i can out of two 10's that can fit in the box that i have.

loud and sound quality don't match well.. those w3s will get louder than you think in a good install
