Silver Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 300 Registered: Sep-06 | comparing these three brands which is the best? somebody was trying to tell me that JL is top of the line, and the subs you get off of the "internet" are crap and must be junk if there not sold in a store. so i thought i would start this thread to have some of the input from veterans on the forum and prove just how frivolous that statement is....let the roasting begin |

Silver Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 157 Registered: Dec-06 | Out of those in my mind JL isn't even in the running unless you're talking sheer SQ. And you're right it's frivolous to even ask and brings to light how ignorant people are, for (seriously) asking that same question on this forum and others, again and again. But it's usually alot easier because they don't throw up four kings like this list. RE and DD are insane for SPL, but man, I just love Fi's stuff for some reason. They have something for everyone and especially with this new driver that will be here on Monday. Fi FTMFW IMO. |

Silver Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 313 Registered: Sep-06 | i made this thread because some guy was implying that JL audio is better than RE, DD, Fi, and other high end internet based car audio company's which has no validity to it whatsoever just wanted to let him see how ignorant of a comment it was. |

New member Username: ToddbrustMinnesota Post Number: 1 Registered: Jan-07 | your friend is right when he says that JL make quality product....but he is a complete meathead to say that brand like RE and Fi and even DD are crap! i have had Both RE and JL and i have heard FIs....My buddy have 2 12" JLw6v2s with a Jl 500/1 powering each one..and he was all about JL audio...and i got my 2 12 SEs and when he heard the SEs, he was disapointed that he spent the amount of money he did on his system! But JL is awsome none the less |

Bronze Member Username: Razzeldazzel06Post Number: 35 Registered: Jan-07 | the image dynamic id max..is my personal favorite..better sq then a jl that is for sure and jl has pretty damn good sq....it has great spl also..and its only 400 for a 12 inch with a 1000rms...you can not go wrong with them..they are the best..and they are easy to go with any amp and the quality of the actual materials the subs are made up of are the finest. |

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 2392 Registered: Jul-06 | how exactly do you compare companies that each make multiple subs...i can understand comparing sub A vs sub B but not company A vs company B. especially when 2 of the companies are nearly the same with Fi and RE. all 4 make high quality subs tho |

Gold Member Username: RvlacosDD 3512 United States Post Number: 1264 Registered: Sep-06 | ok one 9512 out hit 2 13w7 with 2 1000/1 jl amps and the 9515 had orion 2000wrms. the guy with jl had more batts and a bigger alt but still got beat. that why i do so much researc install matters alot but if i was going for pure sq i wouldnt go with any of those but for sql or spl dd ftmfw! |

Gold Member Username: JohnfiacIL Afghanistan,... Post Number: 1015 Registered: Mar-06 | DD is just a legendary company to the underground car audio world, FI is a great budget sub, RE i have never messed with but heard they are great subs. I would say DD is the best for SPL or SQL and then maybe JL for SQ but it depends on the install as well...btw a local sound shop said he hit 165's with 3 10" W7's full of bs right? |
