Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 491 Registered: Aug-06 | I would go with the 4 gauge. and imo i would go with the w3 setup. |

Silver Member Username: Dsmith07LaGrange, NC US oF A Post Number: 285 Registered: Jun-06 | w3 FTW i dont even think you'd need 4 gague but i would get it in case he upgrades in the future |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 572 Registered: Feb-05 | W3 and 4 gague in case we wants to upgrade later. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 1382 Registered: Jul-06 | well that went well. and i really doubt hes gonna upgrade at all, so would the 8 gauge work for the w3/any of the subs listed? and thanks for the opinions |
|
Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 496 Registered: Aug-06 | yeah the 8 will work fine. on a 600 watt amp perfectly. i just would run 4 wont hurt anything. run it to a crossover and throw 8 out to the amp. always there for the upgrade JUST IN CASE  |
|
Silver Member Username: Dsmith07LaGrange, NC US oF A Post Number: 292 Registered: Jun-06 | yea hes always gonna wanna get something different whether he does or not who knows but i'd get the 4 just in case |

Bronze Member Username: ScottybLargo, Fl Post Number: 22 Registered: Dec-06 | you said that you look at the "cc" (circuit city) web site at the bazookas. I wouldnt recommend those compared to the other subs that you listed. I work in car audio at cc and we dont sell many of those. I would go with one of the kickers. i know we have comp vr's 2 12's for $120(400wrms per sub) buy one get one free or 2 12" mtx 4500 (225wrms per sub) for $99. i would rather see you go with those over the bazooka. |

Silver Member Username: Denali_on_22sMaryville, TN Us Post Number: 672 Registered: Feb-06 | W3s dont have great power handling. My friend has two hooked up to a 500/1 and at high volumes his sound like $h!t... They distort TERRIBLY and he's using a sealed box. i would go with the fi.X |
|
Bronze Member Username: ScottybLargo, Fl Post Number: 23 Registered: Dec-06 | if your trying to get everything for under 300 jl's arent probably the way to go unless you are getting a really good deal on them. what kinda a car does your friend have and what is looking for in a system. |
|
Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 497 Registered: Aug-06 | he said he might buy it used..soo he could get it under 300 and the w3's sound good at somewhat higher volume he's only putting 600 on it so it wont distort...as long as the box is good and everything it will sound nice |

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 1388 Registered: Jul-06 | he has a 1989(yr?) jeep wagoneer. hes got plenty of space. and for scottb, the CC thing was a joke, i wouldnt let him buy that, he was just looking at it and i told him i could find better for 300. and i think he'll prob go with the 4 gauge. i think its down to the X and the w3. i want him to get the x cause i wanna hear one of those for myself. thanks |

Bronze Member Username: Kballa422Lexington, KY USA Post Number: 18 Registered: Nov-06 | I ran 2 12" w3's in my Jeep Grand Cherokee for awhile. It was a pretty good setup, after that i bought a 15" RE XXX, so there was no going back, but looking back, when I had the w3's i was satisfied, but now I could never run them again lol. Im about to run 2 15" SI Mags. |

Gold Member Username: CenusHicksville, Ohio Post Number: 2626 Registered: Jan-05 | imo i would go with the assassin, but other subs you might look into would crystal pro se, re re(if you can find them), lower eclipse AL models, and maybe even a AA atlas, just some suggestions. |
