[vdubpower 10+ year member]

hey all, i am new here and seeking some great advice,

i have a old merc benz 500sel that i have had a nice clean system in

kenwood x817 head unit, with

2 way 4inch eclipse speakers in dash and 3 way 6x9 in rear deck which have been running on a eclipse 5422 model amp

my sub has been a 12w0-4ohm in a small sealed box, using a ppi pc 275 amp i believe bridged to 300by 1 at 4ohms

it was running nice until the sub kinda deteriorated with wear and tear.

i got in touch with the JL tech and they said i could run a jl12w3v3 4ohm without issue

so ive been lookin around at where to buy one online

please give me your recs. on best online dealers.

i knw on ebay i can get it for like 180buck s or so but im not sure who to buy from,

I think you have to buy JL direct or dealer for a warranty. But if you dont care about warranty's just buy from a reputable seller on the egay
