I'm plannin on getting a 12W6v2 and i dont know what amp to get. The 400 RMS sub doesn't have a corresponding amp from the jl audio line. Will the 300/1 even get it to move? I would appreciate some help!
Yes, the 300/1 would get it to move pretty nicely. However, I would go with the 500/1 to get all you can out of the sub, if you want to stick to jl amps. The 12W6V2 can handle the 500/1 just fine if the install is done correct (i.e. correct box, correct gain settings, etc.).
Well if you wurr able to buy that sub, which retails for around 450, obvioulsy cheaper online, but still i would consider it a upper price range sub, u myte wanna use some money to get that jl 500.1 amp, which moves that sucker pretty good. Dont get a crappy amp for that sub, u will wanna take advantage of that thing!!
Would this amp get any sound out of the sub? I'm looking for good sound. Not so much massive power that i have to reinforce the back window. If it gets it to shake the rearview mirror that is good.
The 500/1 is probably the best amp from JL you could match with the W6v2 it will sound great but you might wanna keep the gain a little lower than usual being they only rate their W6v2's at 400 watts RMS but they probably underrate their products. Get the 500/1 and you will get the full SPL/SQ out of the W6v2

i have 2 w6-v2's in a sealed box. i was thinking of geting 2 pioneer 1000/1 watt amps, but thats at 2 ohms. At 4 ohms they put out 660 each. will that be enough?
Sorry, I just read the "selling stuff" thread. Is they any way you'd sell the sub without the box? If it's in good condition I'm really interested, but I don't want the sealed box with it.
$375 I got a pretty good deal on it brand new. I paid $40 for the box. your right it will cut down on shipping. I still have origanal box and manual as well.
man I have no idea how much the bad boy weighs. Let me figure that out for you and I will look for shipping once I find out the weight and you can too whatever is cheapest we will go with if you want to.
alright Joe it weighs 22 pounds in the factory box so I will find out about shipping is there a preffered company you like to use. I have found that fed-ex tends to be much cheaper then UPS but its up to you bud.
