Default new sub's

today on my day off my new subs got droped off on my door step !!

I have alway had JL audio subs.. when I bought my truck I decided to try something different. so I went with the new audiobahn's they are loud but a bit slow for the variety of music i listen to.. so I went back to the JLs and here they are

2, 12' JL audio W3's

NICE!! I'm a big fan of running 12's in my systems, and usually get comments about how hard they can hit (I usually run a single 12 too). I try to keep them simple, but pack a big punch [8D]

Holy crap, that is clean in there! You wouldn't want to see the inside of my Beretta right now [sm=smiley9.gif] (mind you the Firebird is spotless!) Looks good, someday I will splurge and get a decent system.

I listen to rock, metal, and rap.

I was thinking about getting this box The air spec are right.. I want to go with a ported box so I can turn down the gain on my amp a little for a cleaner sound.
I'm running a Kenwood excelon kacx401m I think that its 800x1 rms at 4ohm's
I use to be really into audio but in the past few years I have fell outa the game
In my old car I use to have 2 12 w0's with a 300 watt kenwood sub amp that placed 3rd in the db comp. one year at 143.7 DBS


BTW my old sub's are for sale!! 2 12' audiobahn

Whats up dude, hey on your subs are the dual voice coil, or single. Are you running your amp at mono or stereo. Are your subs 4 ohm or 8 ohm. I already know your amp is 4 ohm stable. so that means your can only get so much volume off your amp. now if your subs are dual voice coil and 8 ohms you could configure the subs to hit harder. More solid.

yup your pretty much good to go. you can't drop the ohms any lower then that. well you can but the amp won't be able to take it.
