which JL sub for my 500/1

[ckelley 10+ year member]

I got a good deal today on a 500/1 on ebay. Now im looking for sub to go with it. I wanna stay with JL but dont know which Sub or Subs to get...

I mostly listen to rap so looking for more spl than anything

Ive narrowed the choices down to

1. 1 10w6 ported

2. 2 10'w3v3 or w3v2 (since they are a lil cheaper)

3. 1 13w6 ported (dont know if ill have enough to push it though)

4 1 12w3v3

Thanks

for Jl prices you could almost get a IDmax

If you like ported a dd1512 is 500 rms and costs less than any jl listed.

there are other options, you will be happy either way.

Any others? If not JL then i wouldnt wanna go over $200. I had a Type r on the 500/1 before and it was great, just looking for something different this time since i sold the last setup.

What about an SSD

x2. I have this and it sounds phenominal with plenty of boom. See below:

I also had two 12W3v2's running off a 500/1 in my previous set up and it also sounded very good and had plenty of boom.

Nice.... Which sub is that though?

Is there any difference in those new JL amps vs the old ones?

I said option 3, which would be the 13W6.

The only differences between the v1 and v2 slash amps is the exterior is a little different on the v2's (see above. The just took the raised rib out and made the logo and engraved cirlce) and the v2's are more efficient at dissapating heat. 50% more efficient. That's not to say the v1's weren't, these are just more so.

#3 would be my pic as well....

Type R would be a totally different sound than the w6
