[QUOTE="EdSteezy25, post: 8309240, member: 662855"] Hi everyone! First post here lol Ok so I need help on deciding what sub combo to get. I'm already dead set on getting JL Audio W3 and my amp is the Alpine MRX-M55 and the birthsheet puts my amp at 592 watts rms @ 2 ohms. So I recently went to my local JL dealer and asked what would yield more output a single 13.5 inch W3 (which has a 600 watt max rms) or two 12" W3s on 296 watts each (300 watts is supposedly their "optimum" rms). So what it comes down to I guess is one fully powered slightly larger sub vs 2 mildly powered 12s. The owner said the 2 12s would be louder. PS they'll be going into a ported box. [/QUOTE]
