Kind of set up you got?
I been on the sealed bandwagon for a few weeks but the more i dig into this hobby the more im leaning to the ported. I want the deepest notes i can get.
been looking at these JL as well. I got a factory stock 10" in my eclipse, but was looking into the 12" subs. W0v3 12" WXv2 12"

I prefer alpine.
In my car, i have a really nice system. It probably just about the same price of the car.
a pioneer 8000nex double in headunit, has gps, siriusxm,bluetooth hands free, and alot more. I can watch movies too.
in the trunk i have two alpine type x 12" subs, 2 1000 watt alpine amps, powercap in a custom made ported in custom box. I dont know how I got it in my trunk, but its in and ill probably have to remove everything from the box to get it out.
The headunit locally is 1500$ in a store, or 900-1000$ on ebay. The subwoofers are about 500$ each used, same with the amps, powercap is probably 250.
Ill have to try and find pictures

damn you got ripped off. they dont even make the type x 12's anymore.
I had ONE JL w7 10" a few years back and that shit murdered anything. everyone thought i was packing some crazy setup, lel.
JL is the way to go for fidelity at those low frequencies.

Naw, i paid 250 for the two subs, two amps, and powercap. 450 for the head unit.
If i put it on ebay, i would get probably 1500-2000$ for the whole setup after fees. I know they stopped making type x their price is only going up the last couple years. Its got a custom box too which probably was not cheap either.



If i wanted to sell, i would have to remove the two subs, two amps, powercap from the box to get out of my car, and then i might be able to save the box. Weighs a shit ton and im not sure how i fit it in, but wouldn't go in the normal way.

I'm torn between getting a single or dual 10inch system in my hatch back, im looking for the sound experience not the alerting my neighbors im a mile away experience, i don't want over kill, but i want to come just right up to the edge of it you know. I know 1 sub will sound excellent, but 2 subs...im mean better right?
Correct me of im wrong.

All depends on the subs man. If you're looking at lower grade shit, i'd for sure get at least two. Any high end brands though like Digital Designs, Sundown Audio, etc, make 10s that just one will shit on even four 12s of the cheaper store brands.
Custom boxes ftw. Pre-mades are junk and lose a lot of the speakers potential.

ps. Capacitors are worthless. In some cases they even cause an increase in voltage drop compared to not having one, which I found to be the case with all three capacitors I tried on my system. Adding a second battery does more than 500 capacitors could ever hope to do.

I had a friend who had to sell his jeep because it was so tricked out stereo wise, that the police got tired of giving him noise tickets and they started confiscating it and charging him $500 to get it back. He sold the stereo and the jeep separately. He would have made out if it wasn't for all the penalties he paid.
I would watch out for my hearing if I was you. I,ve got a fair amount of nerve deafness from concerts many decades ago, and I think some of these car systems are louder.

As someone who listens to a fair deal of loud music, I never saw the point of using subwoofers. It seems to me that excessive bass would just ruin the music.

I had about 6000rms of bass and 1200rms of mids and highs was enough to balance it out. Everything was loud as fuck.

I had a JBL subwoofer 12" in my car. Sealed box. Muther Fuckahs stole it!
I perfer ported for the BIG BASS sound u can feel, but i like sealed boxes cause they are compact.
I wish i could have the power of a ported box with the size of a sealed box
I need to save up for another 12"

Logical, the good sub manufacturers make some amazing 6-8" subwoofers now days that can take good power and get loud if relatively small ported enclosures. Might be something to look into.
I prefer giant boxes myself (for subs that call for it obviously). My last system's box to be assembled in the trunk and was also secured to the floor from underneath the car. Sub facing up with only about 3" of clearance from the rear decklid. Impossible to remove from the car in anything less than 2 hours. Good luck stealing that one fuckers.
