JL AUDIO! Need some Help!

Post by P_JizzlE1024 »

Wondering something for anyone who knows JL Audio. I wanna be one of the loudest muthers in town. So wondering if I should go with 2 - 12 6v2 running with a 1000/1 or with 1 - 12 W7 running a 1000/1? I like the clean hits But I love the virbate. Need some help. I got 2 - 15" MTX Thunder 8500 right now.. but i want all JL audio!

i'd imagine the 2 12w6v2's would be louder. on the other hand, a pair of 13w7's owuld be louder than both setups.

A single W7 will outdo a single W6v2 in low end, but 2 W6v2s will better it in the SPL department and have the displacement to outdo a single W7 in low end. Both are excellent SQ drivers, I prefer the W6v2 for SQ purposes, though. I can't see how anyone short of competitors wouldn't be satisfied with 2 12W6v2s in the SQL department, a good install will easily put you in the 140s.

well... a 13w1v2 and a e1400 in with ap orted box and lots of deadening in the trunk will do that too.

Yeah, I just got the almighty 8W3v2 :bow Not the loudest, but it has good SQ and is one of the few subs that can fit in a regular cab Ranger. We'll see how it does.

Been considering the ZR components in the future as well, the more I hear them, the more I like them. Especially saying I'm limited to passive x-overs, which rules out quirky components that need active processing.

the actual outcome will depend on power, enclosure design, and install as well.. but if you want to go deaf, get two 13W7s and a 1000/1 for each sub.
make sure you have a charging system to handle the load.
