Was found today.

My receipt for my first set of subs and box.

2 JL W1's @ $75 each

$206 for a dual bandpass 12" box.

TAS Electronics. Dated 8-2-1995. I picked the subs up 8-11-95.

125 WRMS and 200 peak is wrote on receipt.

Ahhh the good old days. This is why I advise not to use bandpass boxes from audio stores. Experience :p

Hey now the subs were a very good choice for a newb.

I actually went into a store to buy Blaupunkt subs. A guy looking at stuff and laughing at it came up to me. He told me to goto TAS and ask about JL, not to get the blaupunkts.

So he saved me from an expensive mistake. Sorta like we do. If Im in a store and see someone in a same situation I step in.

^This is more what I was reffering to :D

The subs on the otherhand were definately a better choice than your first thoughts ;)
