Ok guys, I am having a life and death struggle deciding which sub i want.

1. 12W6v2

2. 12 iDMAX v3d4

I want to run it in a small sealed box, and don't really care about SPL, mostly SQ.

I have a JBL BP1200.1, but i know how to set gains and it leaves room for upgrades.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

So my dilemma...I've never heard either of these and i need some advice. I keep reading great things about them but still undecided.

I can get them for the exact same price shipped, so is one a better deal than the other?

Also, i need to conserve as much trunk space as possible. Also is it possible to put a grille on a IDMAX with all the excursion? I know one is available for the W6v2.

thanks for your help,

Colin

From what I hear they are both solid subs. I have the JL and the SQ is excellent in my ported enclosure. The JL is suposed to sound even better in a sealed box.

It's a toss up. Find out the best deal, the best warrenty, best application, and best looks of the two and then decide.

Either way you go you will have a very nice subwoofer. No need to stuggle with you decision.

This really is a struggle for me to say aswell bot hare exceptional subs but I think I'd personally go with the W6v2.

Go with the Jl it has great sq and it gets plenty loud

I dunno- Id get the IDMAX.

Will a JL 500/1 push either one adequately?
