Better choice between three mediocre options

[97srad750 10+ year member]

I know these aren't the best options, but they are in the wheelhouse of what I want to spend. I have a box with a blown JBL GTO8, and can't find another to replace it.

I'd wait until you can do a bit better. If not you will just keep throwing money down the drain.

Do you know why yours blew? If not then it's a good chance you will just blow the next one

I didn't blow it. I bought the box on here several years ago from Mitch86, sold it to a buddy. He blew the sub. I bought it back knowing it was blown, and assumed I'd find another JBL. Clearly I haven't, lol.

The amp I have is an Audiopipe APMI1300, and if I have to go with DVC's I have a Hifonics 5 channel amp I could use for the time being.

No I need to buy 4 of them, which is why I wasn't trying to pony up an extra 20-25 per woofer. I thought the older Lanzar got pretty good reviews on here a couple years ago.

Blowing my budget up a little. I may wait and get those SKARS. I was leaning towards the LanzarMAX. I suppose there is a chance a JBL shows up on ebay.

Those skars are good for price, get loud easily. Will not handle gobs of power at all. We smoked one on 300w... but it honestly didnt need that. 200w is plenty to move em
