i was either going to do 2 jl 10 w3v3's with a jl 500/1 or a single alpine 10 type x with a alpine 1000/1... both would be in a ZEnclosures box. what would sound better in the z? i want loud *** bass but i want the quality to be good at the same time thanks for your help in advance

 

this one is all yours doug

i personally think you can get a better sub for the 1000/1, idmax10 would immedaitely come to mind, louder than the type X, goes deeper and sounds better IMO

 

Plz step away from the over priced name brands.

 

lol..

to the OP.. check out jensen speakers.. they are hot to death

 

i just like to stick with stuff that has done me wll in the past

 

if you've been a brand ***** in the past than I see no reason for you to stop now.

 

Wow that was rough.... and also hilarious.

 

the two w3s would be louder. I would go with that. I wasn't impressed with the alpine type X. I think the alpine type r sounds better.

 

i would buy something else truthfully

 

ok, well im open to suggestions

 

Despite all the claims of brand whoring and such, JL makes some decent amps and subs. Probably a bit overpriced, but if you shop around, you can find good deals. Sure, there is better out there, but there is also much, much worse.

I have a JL 500/1 powering a 10w6v2 in a small enclosure in the trunk of my G35 coupe and it is loud, tight and good sounding.

 

Image Dynamics IDMax or FI Q i would say

You can't go wrong with JLAudio.

 

your checkbook can.

 

+1 you will absolutely love either of these subs and they will absolutely love the alpine 1000/1

 

something i would expect from someone with Bose in their sig

 

wait, so your saying jl is overpriced when i can get 2 w3v3's for less than 1 idmax?

 

And that IDmax would sound way loouder and cleaner then the JL's im betting.

 

You need to compare apple to apples......

JL w3 - all around, daily subwoofer

ID Max - one of the best SQ/SPL subs made today.

A proper comparison would be the IDMax and a JL W7.

 

a better comparison for the w3 would be the Image Dynamics IDQ which still blows away the w3..
