Anyone that thinks it's a "war" is an idiot...
Both companies make quality products, for the most part they aren't in the same price bracket. For example, I'd feel very satisfied using either a JL W6v2 or Fi SSD for a reference-quality substage, but going the JL route would cost substantially more //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It's up to the buyer's checkbook and personal tastes as to what they go with...

I must say that I love how eloquently Jim can put things...

It must come from listening to all that warm tube sound....

get dual 1 so you can run the pair at 1 ohm

It comes from listening to audiophools blabber too much //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

When 'RCA cables' become 'interconnects' in normal speech, you know you've lost it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

new subs>used subs i'd get the bl's just cause their brand new.

 

[shalizi 10+ year member]

ok well i sold my subs and box for 370 to a guy on the bmw forums...so now im trying to think for 600 i can get 2 new 12w7 or for 518 get 2 12 BL's...im leaning toward the Bl because they are cheaper but then my only concern is in the future if i decide to sell my system it will be a lot easier to sell the W7's because of its name......will i really go wrong with either set up???
