Will it be louder than W0's?

[simplyxtrippin 10+ year member]

I have been very actively been looking around for an amplifier this past few weeks. I'm pretty strict on my budget since money is a little low and i also have to think about buying sub/s. My audio system is not really "needed." I've looked into trading my amp (zx2400) for a stronger amp but money gets on the way again. So now, im looking into keeping my amp while trying to get a little louder.

My setup:

Amp-zx6400

2x340rms @ 4ohms.

Subs- 2 12" JL W0

~125rms

Would changing the subs make a difference in the loudnedd (db) of the system?

Would another 2 subs with higher rms rating be better (cvr)? How about 1 sub with 4 ohms connected to the amp on each coil (type R)? What sub/s would you recommend?

Thanks for your time.

I just realized that I probably put this in the wrong section. It's supposed to be in a subwoofer section. Can an admin please move this thread to the correct place. Thanks.

You could try to bridge your amp and change how your woofers are wired.
