JL Audio or Kicker

Lucas R Bronze Member Username: Evildoughboy08 Toledo, OH US and A Post Number: 51 Registered: Jun-08	Posted on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 13:21 GMT I currently have 4 12" JL W0s in my. HOWEVER, since i need a new box for them i havent put them in yet. when i DO put them in, its not coming back out. my question to you is... should i sell the JLs and get 4 12" Kicker Comps instead? i can get the kicker comps for 9$ a piece, and sell the JLs for 160, which means i could probably get rid of my Lanzar Vibe251 amp for 50$ and get a nicer one... any suggestions???

Not saying they are a bad choice, just wondering what your goals are from your system. If you like JL, you could move up to a pair of W3 15's and probably save space.

At this point, no need to spend big money on something all new until you have the money to do it.

Lucas R Bronze Member Username: Evildoughboy08 Toledo, OH US and A Post Number: 55 Registered: Jun-08	Posted on Friday, June 20, 2008 - 20:46 GMT it depends on how many kicker comps they have left when i get there. its a one day special only

john quist Silver Member Username: Qslimms Swanton, Oh Usa Post Number: 122 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Wednesday, June 25, 2008 - 19:10 GMT i think the jl's will sound better and the kickers will get louder but not sound as good.lucas anyone you know in toledo lookin for a diamond d3 15 or a crossfire vr1000d?
Benjamin Lukas Kennedy Silver Member Username: Deadrabit Post Number: 501 Registered: Jun-07	Posted on Thursday, June 26, 2008 - 05:25 GMT i would say the kicker will be louder and most people in high school just want something loud to show off. BUT! u might want to make sure those kickers are ok.... 9 bucks.... it makes me think something is wrong with them... if not ill pay u! how many rms can those handle? i want like 20 of them
john quist Silver Member Username: Qslimms Swanton, Oh Usa Post Number: 124 Registered: Mar-06	Posted on Thursday, June 26, 2008 - 06:47 GMT its a special sale while supplies last they say the people goin like lucas gotta camp out the night before to be 1st in line so they can get em

Lucas R Bronze Member Username: Evildoughboy08 Toledo, OH US and A Post Number: 60 Registered: Jun-08	Posted on Friday, June 27, 2008 - 22:05 GMT i want 4 and i need to call up there to check to make sure that i can get 4 at a time.
Lucas R Bronze Member Username: Evildoughboy08 Toledo, OH US and A Post Number: 61 Registered: Jun-08	Posted on Saturday, June 28, 2008 - 16:45 GMT john, i called up there n they wouldnt tel me nothin, but at about 10 this mornin they said there was people already startin to line up. which scares me. so yeah i think im gonna stay with my JLs if i go there and they dont have any kickers left, or if they only let me buy like 3 of them.
