    Wtb: Jl 500/1 for parts

    My 500/1 got in a fight with a metal toolbox and acquired a nice deep war gash across the top. Looking for a broken 500/1 (or just the metal cover) to replace mine. Only needed for aesthetic purposes, so it has to look good and doesn't need to function what so ever. Let me know what you've got!

    Looking for some speaker advice MK5 GTI

    Thanks for the recommendation trumpet. I'll definitely be investigating the CDTs more. Not sure how I feel about the imaging tweeter mounting location yet, but not ruling them out. If anyone has first hand experience with both the Hertz and CDT speakers, I would love to hear your impressions...

    Hey guys, I'm looking for some help choosing speakers for my 2009 GTI. It comes from the factory with 3-way components in the front doors and 2-ways in the rear. I know the hip-firing front woofer location blows, but I'm not ready to cut up the door panels...yet. I don't have much experience...

    2009 Subaru Forester component help

    Hey my friend is looking to upgrade his OEM speakers. His car is leased so he doesn't want to amp them. He was looking to do a component set in the front, and either buying a cheap rear fill or just leaving the stock in the rear. There is a spot for tweeters to be mounted, along with wires...

    Box for a JL 12W3v1?

    Hey I just picked up a JL 12W3v1 and I am wondering what type of enclosure I should put it in. I will be running it at 2ohms, my amp puts out 600WRMS@2 ohms, but I wasn't planning on giving it more than 400WRMS. Will be going in a VW Jetta. Thanks
