I would look at it like this:

If you want a sealed enclosure, go with the W6. If you want a ported enclosure and a little more low end, go with the GTI.

Hey dude, in your sig you claim to have a JL 400/4. Got any pics/specs? I've never even heard of that.

ive ran all my w6s in a ported box and they were loud and sounded good at the same time. But from doing the research im sure you will be happy with either.

Dude........you have gotten many more posts suggesting the JL, Yet you are saying you are leaning towards the JBL.....what gives? Get the JBL.....it seems like that is what you want anyhow. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

Technology and R&D is a little more in depth with the wGTi...they took a different route...

Capable of being one of the best sounding woofers in the world, and can also belt out some pretty sick SPL numbers...

Without a doubt one of my favorite woofers of all time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

cotjones stfu have you even used the JBL?? i don't think so //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/*******.gif.a649d21efc0d1fd4890a6428166586c1.gif

JBL GTi > W6

I've owned both and your small brain wouldn't know that the JBL GTi can go in a sealed box as small as .5 cu ft with polyfill and still sound amazing

If you know what your doing.. JBL GTi all the way both in price and performance //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/drool.gif.b5e863e893038027711d4402f340dad0.gif

I have owned a Fi Q as well.. JBL beat it in SQ and SPL with ease IMO

i am leaning towards the jbl, im sure the w6 is amazing, but i dont want a sealed box, which is where the w6 would perform. i wanted to hear if the w6 was gunna be significantly better then the GTI, but everyone who has given input has said they are pretty close, so the gti comes out on top due to money. nothing agaisnt the w6, and im not for sure going with the jbl yet i need to think more, but i just want to try the gti becuase of some of the great things ive heard about it.

it seems like the w6 is 100% sq, am i wrong?

I have the GTI in a 1.2^3 sealed enclosure powered by a BPX1100.1. It sounds pretty good. It loves the lows //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

I've never tried it ported though but I have heard a ported setup for a brief moment. It got to loud for my tastes.

Not all advice is equal.

Immacomputer actually knows what he is talking about //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/graduate.gif.d982460be9f153bb54e5d4cb744f6ae8.gif

Take it over someone who screams the same brand name every time

Hint: look to see who has JL in his avatar.

 

[skisloski 10+ year member]

yeah i need a strong low end. does it sound alot better sealed 2kchevy? i have some negative feelings about sealed setups because of what ive heard in the past, but these were never subs like a gti or a w6, so IDK...
