I think the W6's work best in singles or 3 of them(which would be hard to fit)

 

Can you have to much bass? they make adjustments for that, id just soon know i have it then not.

 

so you adjust the cross over and turn it down

 

if i was running a w6 i would take that DE and put it in my mouth.. then have her pull the trigger

 

My opinion is two.....If you go with one you may over-adjust to meet your listening preference. If you go with two you can keep it tight (30-40hz) and still have the volume. Just my experience.......

 

Do you think a 500/1 amp would be sufficient for two? Since I would have them adjusted low, I would imagine that would be enough power. Then if I still wasn't satisfied with the bass, all I would have to do would be replace the amp. Does that sound like a reasonable compromise to everyone, or would that just not be enough power for those subs?

 

*sigh*

why are you still thinking about 2 10w6's when we already told you 1 FI Q will sound better?

 

And cost less

 

if you want JL than do it , power it or them to full rms and the 500-1 will do that for 1 but not both

if you are not gonna take my advise from real world experience and not theory than so be it

your will spend way less money on an custom built FI sub and it will cost less, get louder, get deeper , sound better

the JL will sound good the FI better

 

All I can say is I'm glad I listened to you guys when I made my sub selection. I was one of the sheeple caught up in the have to have maintstream components, and would have waisted alot of money....

 

i have no financial interest in guiding people to certain brands

i have used or installed most all brands

i offer my experience for free take it or leave it

in life you can follow
you can lead
you can walk along side

always try to lead
okay to walk along side

try not to follow

 

QFT

 

...if you follow, the view never changes.

 

There is nothing wrong with following.......

 

WERD UP!

 

Well after all the feedback I guess I should probably listen to you guys and go the fi route. What amp would you recomend to run with it?

 

get jl. Sorry, just wanted to say something different from the rest of the guys.

Get what you want. Not what other recommend.

 

You're going to get even more opinions on amps. There is no "right" answer. IMO, I'd try an Elemental Design amp. Great value and lots of people speak highly of their quality.

But that is one of many you could choose from. I don't know how much power the Fi takes, but IMO, get one with as much power as you can afford (500+ watts).

 

+1 on getting a LOT of different opinions on amps.

If it were me, I would go for a Crossfire VR1000D - 1000 rms into 1ohm. get a dual 2ohm voice coil sub and wire in parallel to 1ohm.

FI SSD 10"= 800rms
FI Q 10"= 1000rms

 

I have 2 JLW6V2 10" in a ported box. They have plenty of bass for when I need it. And I have about 250rms each. As far as a amp goes I wouldent get a jl unless your getting it for show. You can get double the power or even tripple the power than a jl 500/1 for half the price. For $300.00 you can get a poweracoustik a2400bd. Does close to rated power and great price.
