JL subs are expensive because they are one of the very few manufactures that are manufactured in the US. They also do NOT cut corners on quality or materials.

I dont care what anyone says, JL subs are the bomb!

LOL I am not saying JL is not good but I will say their is better out there for the money. They are good but over rated and over priced from what I have seen and heard.

HT Rambler………..you should take 2fast4thelaw’s advice. He is correct! And the Focal speakers would match perfectly. When it comes down to advice/opinions………….trust the one who actually has own the speaker and the car its installed in.

Go with the W6v2, I have owned both and still own and IDQ and the W6 takes the cake. The 500/5 is a great amp for going active with its staggered front and rear channels. Ive said it before, some of the best components for the money are Pioneers TS-C720prs. The frequency respnse graph is as smooth as sets that cost about 5 times as much. Spending big money isn't neccesary if the install is on point. Big audio keeps reccomending an IDQ like he owned, even though he claimed in his for sale thread he never used it, weird.
Make sure you deaden your doors with a dynamat or second skin mass loaded deadener and then use an acoustic foam over that. Spend the money and Install correctly the first time.:tiphat:

Do not forget speed that I have done installs that have used ID subs. I have also done a few install with JL subs as well. I also agree with the detaining any high end audio is not worth putting in unless you damping the rattles and echoing from the metal.

Also I would watch what I buy from the premier line as they are being discontinued.

Hey guys thanks for all the responses. I'm not much on pioneer at all just personal choice. not going to bash them just not my thing. Have not owned any focals but heard them in the stores , also there are other good seperates. Dont know much about cdt but have read a little on them. Putting a lot of stock in conchz2 , and 2 fasts ,( since he has the same equipment in the same car) so that is a plus. Also as stated before doing it correct the first time is a must dynamatt etc.... Everyones opinion is respected and apreciated thanks again !!

You are both serving false information. And the real answer won't be available until CES 2010. You should both attend, maybe have a few beers together.
