Monday, March 27, 2006 - 18:33 GMT get the jl. jl is one of the best brands of subwoofers with one of the best sq. and yeah it will get louder than the 12.1d and sound better. but those infinitys dont sound too bad either

Monday, March 27, 2006 - 20:12 GMT dont under-estimate JL. they are like the ferrari of car audio. very high quality stuff that you can depend on. i have a friend who is a manager at Hi-fi buys. he said that the biggest thing with JL, is that you can bet it will work for a long long time; with that and the quality, infinity doesnt stand a chance. infinity has great car audio no doubt, but home audio is more their specialty.

Monday, March 27, 2006 - 23:06 GMT u may want to also look into that of the kicker cvx. if your planning on jl, anything would be good. i am not impressed with the 1's though. keep in mind that the w3v3's will be coming out shortly.
