Need some help!

Recommended Posts

Ok guys I got 2 10'' JL w0's (old ones), they beat pretty good in my truck (ext. cab sonoma), but it is time for bigger and better things. My buddy has 3 12'' JL w0's (also old ones) that I am buying, but 2 of them are 4ohm and the other is 8ohm. I have 2 amps to use. I'm not sure if I should run all 3 12's ( 8ohm on one amp and 2 4ohm on the other), or run the 2 4ohm 12's with my 2 4ohm 10's. Either way I will build a sealed enclosure with each one in its own chamber. I'm just open for suggestion. Got alot of stuff and don't know what to do, any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Think the three 12's would be the better option? The 8 ohm would be within like 10-20 watts of the others. Might just try it first and if I don't like it I can always sell it all. I only have 200 bucks in all the subs and amps, and everything works great and the subs look new still. Just been sittin around for alot of years, lol.

Why not try it since I got it? More than likely it will not be enough, lol. I been tryin to get some pricing info from ascendant, depending on how much their subs are, I might get a couple 15's or one 18. I would like to have a excuse to get a T2500, fell in love fisrt time I saw one lol.

Ok I just spoke with Nick from Fi, Ascendant, etc. He gave me some really good info. So after brainstorming for a bit I decided to just start over from scratch. Thanks for aiding in my final decision. Looks like I'm gonna sell all my equipment and upgrade to 0ga wiring, then order 2 15'' Havocs. Hopefully I can also get me a set of carbon comp. Look for a build log in about a month lol.

Now thats a good idea if you have the room for 15's and proper enclosure.

Good luck bro, be sure to put up some pics of your build.

Hey man, you will be much much happier doing it the right way the first time around. Less problems to deal with and way more output. It may be a bit more pricey and time consuming but way worth it. Great decision and good luck.

Already did it once, just time for a redo. Give me a month or two and I will put up some porn for you guys. Gonna go with a Cresendo 3k amp and some Ascendant carbon components too. Should be alot better though.
