[QUOTE="joelx21, post: 7252942, member: 630819"] As the title says... my friend gave me a JL 10W6. He's had it laying around for about 2 years and thought that I would put it to better use. I was about to purchase an Alpine Type R 10" with 500RMS when my friend offered to give me this sub. I'm very new to the car audio world, but I did a lot of research on the Type R subs. (this website helped tremendously) However, I don't know much about JL subs. I know that JL makes amazing subs that even surpass Alpine subs... but they are just too expensive for me to even consider. [B]Here are the specs on the older 10w6[/B] [URL="http://mobile.jlaudio.com/pdfs/8-12W6_BDS.pdf"]http://mobile.jlaudio.com/pdfs/8-12W6_BDS.pdf[/URL] [B]Here are pics of the subs[/B] [IMG]http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h253/joelx21/10w6Pic1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h253/joelx21/10w6Pic3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h253/joelx21/10w6Pic2.jpg[/IMG] [B]I'm planning on using the 10" in an MTX fiber glass stealthbox with .6 cubic feet. [/B] The 10w6 requires .625 cubic feet The Type R requires .6 cubic feet I love music, and I want a nice loud/bump from my sub, but I don't want my internal organs to rumble when I'm playing music lol The Type R is very cheap ($120 shipped) considering the performance that you get. [B]Considering $ and performance.... what would you guys do? Install the older 10w6 or buy the Type r? [/B] Thanks, Joel [/QUOTE]
