[QUOTE="spluvs2install, post: 5543316, member: 571758"] I sat here and wondered if thats even possible. The Jl W0's I know a lil bit about those dang subs. I had one of the first pairs of w1's back in 1996. The surround didnt even stay together b/c it was made outta something synthetic. It would crumple after a few years. I called Jl and they said they no longer fixed those. I got 3 w6's thinking that since they were larger subs they could rebuild those and nope, they were junk too. But will i ever follow the crowd again, hell no. Its all jus hipe and it also depends on where you live and who the dealers are around you and who pushes you to buy what they want. Some people love RE, some people love RF, and some love crystal audio. I use DD b/c I know them subs are dependable. As far as 140 db, thats not very loud. I have personally broken 140db w/a single 8in DD sub in a box that was too big for it. I needed more sound so I bought 3 more of them 8's to do shows in my area. I ended up selling them all to do something else. As far as box building, you don't have to school me on anything really. I know others will enjoy reading what you have to say, so its not a big deal and thats cool your trying to help out people understand how its done. For me anyway, I know how it all works, box's are 80% of the build. However I dont know how to build box's but my team leader is a box expert, so I leave all that to him b/c I don't know shit on shit. I can fix a car, but cutting wood isnt my thing. He did just build a box for 2 8in subs and powering it with about 300 watts per sub and it hits hard![IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
