GTO1204D JBL or Sony XS-L124P5B ? My friend got his sony system stolen so now he's upgrading too JBL's( link below) i was wondering what you guys think about both the subs and which is better and why. he had a sealed box with 2 12" sony's and a Sony XM-2002GTR amp. Now he's buying 2 JBL's in a JBL ported box with a GTO301.1II Mono Subwoofer Amplifier. oppinions of both products..??

I have never been a big bandpass fan but JBL seriously knows their sh!t and I am not doubting that box sounds loud and clean. I actually really like that design they came up with.

Funky Pups > Sony

Well.... Sony makes absolute junk car audio gear and JBL makes pretty much middle-of-the-road stuff with a few things that are bordering on high-end. No comparison.

Hey he brought the JBL's but instead of the GTO301.1 II he got the GTO601.1 II . i told him to upgrade it since the subs could handle it. was that a smart investment or stupid? we paid around $100 to upgrade.

Look into older model ones used... they are cheap and do alot more power then they are rated... and are super solid... the only thing that gets my amp hot is direct sunlight, not use.
