JL W3 or Cadence ZRS

Hey guys toying with the thought of upgrading my Cadence S2 10s. I'm pushing them with a Cadence ZRS-65 at 600 watts x2. I want to stay with 10s but get a little more sq. Would yall recommend 2 JL W3 or Cadence ZRS10-1000-2s?

I've heard great things about both subs but haven't got to hear either

I would look into the incriminator flatlyne if your looking for sq.

 

[devast8r3436 10+ year member]

I'm going to have a box custom made for whichever subs I get

What you need to do is stop dilly dallying, and get two 18's and the biggest boss audio amp you can find...lol.

O don't want the thump of two 18s lol. I like the response of 10s better. And ill never run anything boss. All I've ever seen from them was cheap junk. They may have some ok stuff but I haven't seen any. I'm happt with my cadence amps lol

Yeah man, i would love to have the jl's, but the price point has always turned me off. Think about the ssa gcon's? You had to know i was messin with you on the boss amp, right?

 

[devast8r3436 10+ year member]

I was hoping man but you go through amps pretty often lol

 

[macsdad 10+ year member]

You know you love it. Serious about the gcons though. And i finally have the amp i needed/wanted in the saz1500v.3. Just waiting on that lvl 4 m2, so i can be crazy bumpin, ya heard?

Unless you can get the JL for a good price, I'd go with Cadence.

But, since those aren't your only options and want some sq, I would say look at SSA or ID. I haven't had experience with IA, but I know they are great too. Or if you can find a JBL GTI that wouldn't be too shabby either.

So the Gcons are macdaddy huh? lol E-Rock have you heard any of the ZRS subs? My S2's are mean but they aren't quite as sq oriented as I want. They get lean just a hair more toward the spl side. Looking up those Gcons now to william

I haven't actually seen or heard ZRS subs in person. I do like a lot of Cadence's stuff though and I really miss my ZRS-C65 that I had in my old car.

Parts-Express has a Bravox buyout going on right now. So something like Bravox EXS12D-4 Extreme Duty 12" DVC Subwoofer 4 Ohm Per Coi 269-532 may not be too bad for cheap.

I love my ZRS-C65 it is an amazing amp. Using it with A ZRS-C9 and they are just great amps. I wish I could afford to get a C4 but until I can these work great. I have been told that the ZRS subs are on par with W7s but haven't got to hear one in person yet
