The jbl will supply more power and the w3 are known for taking good amounts of power so get it.

Id do it.

Keep the JBL, sell the Hifonics.

no i was offered the two amps by two different people. the jbl1200.1+cash, and then a hifonics 1500d amp, but i dont think thats a good amp

I would take the JBL over the Hifonics any day of the week. Those JBL's are known for being a little underrated, whereas the Hifonics are notorious for being overrated.

And, power wise, you would benefit from having the larger wattage amps.
