here's what I'm thinking...

--2 JL 10w0 subs (with a 300 watt RMS amp)

--1 JL 12w3 sub (same amp)

--2 Alpine 12 inch Type S subs with about 500 watts running them (VERY pricey).

I want a lot of bass, but not an overkill. I think the 2 Alpine 12's would be RIDICULOUSLY loud. Do you think that one JL 12w3 would pump a lot of bass, or what?!?! thanks.

or get one 18w3 ;-)

I listen to a lot of techno, euro electronica, industrial, and metal- so I too like heavy bass. I'm eventually switching to a single 12. The 10 has a little trouble hitting the ULTRA low frequencies at high volume, but RARELY do I come across a track that causes it to complain. I'm building a custom enclosure for the 12. I just need to decide on a happy medium that yields tight bass and yet hits low.

yeah....right. 18 inch subs sound like mud.

anyways, i have a 10" JBL Power in a ported box, sounds pretty good, hits hard, but not too tight

JBL 12"(some new series they are comin out with), or an Infinity Perfect 12"

Don't get W0's, I'd rather get the 12w3

it ain't the best thing in the world but it does the job for now......... for now.

I replaced it with an infinity perfect 12, and it sounds much louder/better tighter. You can get perfect 12's on Ebay for $199. I give it 400w RMS, but I know it could take much more. I'd reccommend that woofer over any of the ones your interested in. Also, I have mine firing thru the ski sack. With the rear armrest down, the bass hits REALLY hard. Especially if all the windows are up. My brother was like "make it stop"...."my head is throbbing". I don't really get those symptoms, but I grew up rollin around with subs in the back.(now I have one of my own...much better)

how many watts did you have pushin' the JL?
