They were nice speakers when they were made (I heard the 10's) but better can be had for less today.

I'm not sure how old but they are jl audio's first JL Audio 12W3 subs.They are not even on the jl audio's disconutinued page!
When you click for the 12w3 it takes you to the pdf. for the 12wV2 {verison 2 subs}.
I only got them for $150 brand new from a pawn shop!
should i hooked then up or save them???

Well if you sell them on ebay keep in mind that you have listing fees seller fees and paypal fees.

They are very old. I remember them from a few years after I graduated high school so id say they might be 14-15 years old.

I just realized your talking about the w3's I thought you were talking about the w6's those were the ones I heard. Sell those and buy better subs.

I hate to break this to you but speakers dont go up in value as time goes on. Better and better stuff is just going to keep coming out and those speakers will be worth less and less.oh yea, also there is no way your going to sell those for $450. Sell them now for whatever you can get for them IMO

I Know this ain't the best stuff "budget system's"
but still cost way more money than the stuff i had back in the day that wasn't half the cost plus sounded way better than these pieces of junks!!!!
Is it because almost everything is made in china today,compared to the old stuff was made in the usa???

If the diamonds didn't sound good then you fail at installing
