[QUOTE="smullen, post: 345156, member: 549336"] I think its for a couple of reasons... 1st by far is cost... 2nd, its cool to hate JL... It seems like there are certain brands in everything that get popular for one reason or another and then everyone hates them... Like Computers, Microsoft for example... Everyone, hates Bill and anything to do with the Microsoft Machine... Say what you want about it M.S. crashing or whaterver the dig and how much better your latest kernal of (insert linux,unix,solaris or other ux flavor) that you just compiled today is... Microsoft has done more for the internet and the PC market than any other OS... (back on topic, sorry for the rant) JL does make a good product and wins tons of awards every year... With that I am by no means saying JL is the best.... I own several (5+ Subs of various sizes and models along with other brands too) Currently, I am saving to buy another brand that hopefully sounds as good, but will put out way more volume... I think they are really good for a SQ install, but just don't have the balls for all out SPL... Most of the people you hear bashing them are either complaing about the cost (rightfully so) or they compete SPL and are running subs that will handle multiple KWatts... Which is not JLs niche....
