There isnt nothing "wrong" with JL. Its the prices of a 10 year old designed sub, and a amp that will "mute" itself when the voltage/amperage drops. But it still makes power? how JL huggers say they get loud with out electrical upgrades but even JL recommends a HO for the 1000/1? But its mostly the people that buy JL, stick it in some off the self box and say its the best. They ruin it for the ones that hug JL and have a clue on how to get some decent performance out of it. Its a middle of the road SQ company, IMO a real SQ company dont have budget crap like the WX subs and JX amps. People that compare the price of JL to Hertz/Audison and Mc crack me up.

IMO a good company should have as diversified of a product line as possible to make sure it reaches the needs of as many customers needs as possible. I totally don't blame them for the Wx and Jx lineups. It came as a response to Rockford's Prime series and to capture those who like the value of TMA but don't want to be associated with an unknown brand. With the economy in recession, people are looking for cheaper alternatives and for the mass majority of people who don't know whats good from bad, being able to own a widely known name brand is a huge value. From a marketing standpoint, its a genius concept. Proctor and Gamble owns hundreds of brands that all compete with each other, its the same thing on a smaller scale. But what do I know about marketing...I'm only a human resources/marketing student a semester and a half from graduation.

I'd rather have a WX 5 inch sub and a JX 20 watt amp than anything with the **** name Planet junkAudio on it.

EDIT: actually I'd rather have nothing at all
