I can get some JL XR 650CSi components on sonic electronix for around $255 and on ebay for like $235 or so, is it worth the extra $20 for a 1 year warranty? Anyone have any components break down on you?

dont buy it from either of those! get it from a dealer. jl wont warranty anything you buy online.

yeah i just bought a jl 500/1 from ebay, and it was blown. so now i'm stuck with a blown amp. oh yeah, and jl won't do anything about it because they don't allow their products to be sold online. if i was you i would spend the extra money and buy them from a shop. it will be worth it in the long run.

SonicElectronix offers their own 1 year warranty!

Ebay offers no warranty!

Both are brand new sealed. JL Man, yours were used however!

do what you want to save the buck but good luck if it fails and you need to get incontact with sonic electronics. going to an authorized dealer is the only save way to do it.

Well some people don't give a crap about a warranty some do. If it's something you think you will use then spend the extra money and go to an authorized dealer if you got the money to spend on new ones if they bust and are willing to take the chance them go with ebay or a non authorized retailer. Another thing is if you get it from an authorized dealer you know what you are getting, you can see it, touch it, and don't run the risk of damage during shipping or anything like that.

Buy it from sonic.

A 1 year warranty from an online retailer who has been around for years is better than some e bay sellers warranty- if any.
