Silver Member Username: Gavbo211US Post Number: 126 Registered: Jan-05 | totally agree with dan. i have the W3v2's myself and i just wish i could afford the 500/1 to go with them lol. |
Silver Member Username: Gavbo211US Post Number: 127 Registered: Jan-05 | If u are looking for sumthing cheaper i can only say good things about my Soundstream VGA 600.2 too. i have been very very pleased with this amp. but make sure u get the VGA (aka Vangogh) or an older model Soundstream cause after the VanGogh models came out Soundstream got bought out by some crappy company, poweraoustic i do believe. |

I dont trust going to stores becuase some of them will tell you anything and my friends dont know nothin. So what exactly do I need be sides the subs and the amp. I think I have enough money so hit me with what you got. I have a corola so dont laugh but ya. What is the best type of box for these subs. |

Silver Member Username: JakeyplaysbassSt. Louis, MO Post Number: 407 Registered: Jul-05 | yes thats a perfect match. |
New member Username: PushaPost Number: 4 Registered: Dec-05 | Im confused I showed my uncle the jl audio site and he said that I should only run one 12w3v2 sub to a 500/1 amp. He said that the 500/1 jl amp really only has 250 watts. Also he said the effiency of the 12w3v2 isnt worth buying. I have a 05 corolla do I need a new head unit. Is he correct. |

Silver Member Username: HomegrowncamWatauga, TX United States Post Number: 140 Registered: Jan-05 | Well I just looked at the site and the only part it says 250 is for the damping factor. The 500/1 puts out a clean 500 watts if not more rms. |
Silver Member Username: UcfsaxmanOviedo/orlando, Fl Post Number: 474 Registered: May-05 | ya sorry to say your uncle is completely wrong. the w3v2 is a very efficient sub thats why you can get so much out of them w/ only 300 watts. |
New member Username: PushaPost Number: 5 Registered: Dec-05 | so if each sub has 300 watts and the amp only has 500 doesnt that mean i wouldnt get the best quality out of my subs |
Bronze Member Username: JkidderSpring hill, Florida Usa Post Number: 43 Registered: Nov-05 | will 2 of these beat 2 12" type-r's? i am considering gettin the type-r but due to jl's reputation i was lookin for a similar sub by JL... also i def. cant afford a w7 so dont even mention that lol |
Silver Member Username: UcfsaxmanOviedo/orlando, Fl Post Number: 476 Registered: May-05 | well the 500/1 is a little underrated but no matter who you ask everybody will always recommend the 500/1 for 2 w3v2s. |
New member Username: PushaPost Number: 6 Registered: Dec-05 | whats the difference between the 12w3v2. http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_subs.php?series_id=12 |
Anonymous | yeah the 500/1 would be an ideal match for 2 12w3v2s i've heard 2 12w3v2s in a ported box that was run by a 500/1, it was one of the better set ups i have ehard with that amount of power get em. i'd suggest the set up to anyone |
