There is just way too many companies making good subs so it all boils down to personal preference //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

I meant that any sub that was $500-$600 range or more is kind of over-priced as there is something called diminishing returns.

The W6v2 is one of my favorite subs at any price bracket. The rest of their speaker line doesn't interest me all that much.


This forum is full of bassheads, so a speaker like the W6v2 wouldn't interest them.

Not even the W3v3? I thought they sounded very well on a few ocasions.

Everyone summed it up.

JL costs way to much for what you get. DD is SPL oriented. Anything DD will outpound a JL all day long.

JL may have some SQ, so does ID. ID can accomplish the same exact thing a JL does, but cheaper.

JL also has shitty recone options that the others such as Fi, DD, DC, etc can be had for way cheaper and less hassle.

There's a difference between something that sounds good, and sounds the same //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

So your saying ID and JL sound the same, but ID is infact cheaper. Thats just another reason why JL sucks some more balls.

Why is it that everytime JL Audio products show up on here, the HATERS all come out?
I always read here stuff like JL makes good stuff but is overpriced when they see a JL sub listed for $400-$500.

Funny thing is.. NO ONE DARES to say that a DD sub that's priced at $500-$600 is overpriced.

What a JOKE.

I hate fanboys.

Gimme some old school w0's w3's w6's and ill be a fanboy

fuk new stuff

Really?

There's a difference between something that sounds good, and sounds the same. Then whats the difference? The ID sounds good? JL sounds the same? Or both brands sound the same?

Personally, lack of recone options makes absolutely no difference whether or not I'd buy a driver. There's no reason for me to worry about blowing a speaker, unless my amps suddenly go bad and dump DC on the outputs.

First you say there is no reason, yet you state one. Which is it? Either there is a reason or there isnt. Recones are definately a concern for some people.
