any difference?

[edudlive 10+ year member]

i was looking at a jbl 600.1 and a us acoustics 800d to power my ek12

i know the jbl's xovers **** and it has no subsonic filter

ive heard good things about the xovers ont he 800d and it has a subsonic filter

i know the jbl is underrated.....

both are 600x1 at 2 ohms

would i be best going with the us acoustics? will it be worth the loss of power difference between the us acoustics and the jbl?

would i even notice the difference in the two's power?

There probably wouldnt be an audible difference between the two amps.

Are you putting the K in a sealed or ported box?

I would probably go with the US Acoustics amp.

ported in 2 cubes tuned to either 30 or 35 hz

the us acoustic amp is also underrated like the JBL, and i believe the JL is rated somewhere in the 13v range as the US acoustic is rated at 12.9v.

i would spend he extra $20 or so on the us acoustics. quality is better, more features, subsonic filter. best of all, if u buy it at thezeb.com, you'll get the manufactor's full 3 years warranty. can't get that kind of warranty with the JBL online can you?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

go with the us acoustics. thezeb.com: 6.95 for shipping and the ****in amp is bulletproof. and if i may quote jmac, "you can use it as a shield in the line of fire" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
