JLw6v2 http://www.jlaudio.com/subwoofers/12w6v2.html VERSUS Eclipse SW9122 http://www.eclipse-web.com/products/speaker/sw9100/sw9122.html Overall, i.e. SQ/SPL Here I go again with the “versus” question. It’s just that there are so many opinions to appreciate. Basically, a buddy of mine...

I am actually not planning on buying any new amp anytime soon. I ask moreso for my information. I know that the pathetic brands are not even worth mentioning that's why I mentioned the fact that I have a HiFonics and people are always saying that JBL is the economic choice. It's not even a...

If possible, I want to get a good discussion going that will help me tremendously and others as well. I'll try to be clear in exactly what my query is: Regarding sound quality (emphasis on sound quality alone), does the amplifier brand matter? I know some amps have more versitility and give...

Well, I installed it and it actually didn't sound as bad as I thought it would (keep in mind all I listen to in my car is rap), but it didn't compare to my sealed enclosure in SQ, just a hell of a lot louder as one would expect. Now, I by no means claim to have a real "vented enclosure”...

thanks i did and re-did the math and am certain that the effective volume is 2.68cf and 2.5 including driver displacement. using WinISD, the box is actually tuned to about 46 or 47Hz. Still small, still tuned high...yep actually it meets JL's recs for a vented box, but is tuned too high i...

I got a premanufactured enclosure... WAIT!!! don't shoot I am still a newbie Anyhow it is 0.75" MDF, really small though, but it was real cheap... Anyhow, I am trying to figure out what the internal volume is and the frequency of the box is. It is one chamber for two 12"s and has a slot port...

Lots of repsonses to my original post, THANKS... I have all 4 subs, 2 RF HX2s and 2 JL 12w6v2s. What happened is, i already had the RFs and got a great deal on the JLs and couldn't pass it up especially beacuse i wanted to hear them. i switched the subs in the EXACT SAME SETUP, sealed...

quick question, all opinions appreciated in terms of solely SPL which one will get louder given the same enclosure, power, etc. 2 Rockford Fosgate HX2 2212, 12" rated @ 500watts rms each or 2 JL 12w6v2, 12" rated @ 400watts rms each the RF sub has a higher efficiency/ SPL rating at 88 vs...

I am asking a question for my friend who does not have internet access (close to his home). He actually knows a lot more about car audio than me... He has a 1800W Audiobahn mono amp that pushed his 3 Kicker VRs beautifully for quite some time. But then suddenly the amplifier started playing...

What do you think about Eclipse subs in general and more specifically about the SW9122 Titanium subwoofer?: http://www.eclipse-web.com/products/speaker/sw9100/sw9122.html How do you think this stacks up against the infamous JL12w7 or 12w6v2? If you look at the link, the xmax looks very...

Lay It Down, by Eightball and MJG Violent,by Tupac (if you have good SQ) Kill or Be Killed, by Do or Die a lot of Missy Elliot's tracks have great bass also. If you play these tracks with your system, you won't be dissatisfied! especially "Lay It Down", when the bass comes in it sounds...

check this out from the rockford fosgate website http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/ez2/fcsscripts/ExternalFiles/Rockford/2002/Amplifiers/MAN3779B_PWRbdAmps_MAN.pdf if you read page 9, they have recommended alternator sizes for their power amps. for a 1500 rms amp, they only recommend a 100A...

mgaidica What’s up? I may just ask you to make me a box depending on pricing and a few other factors. I am looking for a box for a pair of jl 12w6v2s: http://www.jlaudio.com/subwoofers/pdfs/10_12W6v2_MAN.pdf I want one box for both with a divider (separate chambers) and vents similar to...

i just realized that instead of the ebay auction doing it, i could have home depot cut the wood (i assume), but i'm not sure that they'd cut out the circles for me. mgaidica, i may contact you if need be to make a box. in the meantime, depending on the subs i get i want one similar to the ebay...

building a box may not work out for me anyone know a website that sells good vented/ ported boxes or possibly custom makes them? i was looking at this one... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3032720110&category=14945&rd=1 it's a little small but it looks cool...
