well, my buddy is about to got back with 2 15's and i bought his old speakers from him. let me know what you think...




He built the box for it, thats going to get chaged next week. we will be building a sealed box for them. Its 4 w3v3's and a 500/1 jl amp. does pretty dang good considering i got the speakers and box for 150 bucks. im also running a pioneer DD... ill get some more pics of all that, my cam died when i was taking these pics..

youve got 4 subs and only a JL 500/1? what is the RMS on those subs? 10 inch or 12

yeah dude 500 seems a little underpower for 4 subs.......

10s 12s are 500 watts..per jl website .a little unpower but im sure still sounds good.

Thats a pretty good deal and the box seems pretty big. Not bad even if you wanted to replace the speakers with something else and get a bigger amp.

yeah im sure those speakers can handle more... but this thing freaking slams. The box is bigger than i like, but hopefully we are going to build a new one next week sometime. he had a TMA 1000 watt in his tahoe and it seems like it hits just as hard or a little hard in my tahoe than his. But theres no telling... haha

dude you can expect it to sound different if you build a smaller box. you will prolly notice that the lows wont be as loud. I would just leave the box and get a bigger amp cuz those seem waaay underpowered. I mean 500RMS subs x 4 subs=2000 Watts RMS and you have 500RMS.... yea you need more.

plus that TMA mightve had too much of an ohm load to get its full potential out of it which might be why it wasnt any louder. but with the JL Slash series, ohms between 2 and 4 are no prob for that 500/1 (between 1.5 and 4 for 1000/1)
