If you want to be safe, go with the Jl 500, but I would get a little bigger amp, something like the Kicker amp that put's out 650 watt's, can't think of the exact moddle number! That guy's w3 with 500 watt's really pounded! |

With the Kicker 650, depending on the ohm's, would git around 325 watt's, in my appinion, and my appinion only, that would work with that sub better. Sorry if that came across as pushy, it wasn't ment to be, it just look's that way when you read it. |
