what are you going for sq or spl? i would drop the l5 the ma and the ed right off the bat. if it had my choise i would be the pioneer the hifonics or the jl but its dependent on sq or spl

I seen a video on ROE.com and this guy had two W0 12''s i think and the roof flex and door flex was insane and he said it only had 100rms going to each, and if thats true.... then the Jl would be nice cause i wouldnt be spending 500 on amps to get good perforamce... I want it loud, if it sounds bad ported ill run em sealed. if did the JL i wouldnt run IB!

IB is a bad idea. sealed or ported is your best bet the jl's are nice the pionners are decent and the hifonics arnt bad.

I might also consider the RE 12''s i think they are only 80each shipped.. I like that idea ALOT compared to 150 each for the JL, but if the JL will be significantly louder, i'll pay the extra. im upgrading from a pair of Infinity refrence 12''s and I was happy with those, my friend has an accord i just installed two W3 10''s and they where suprisingly loud

Well out of those choices , vehicle, and install Idea what would you personally buy? for just daily SPL, listen to rap mainly

well im partial to pioneer but the jl subs are really nice for the money and the res are a good idea. it would be a tough pick. work on your amp selection and then pic a sub that matches the amp the best. also the hifonics you speak of are tought to blow up a team mate of mine is running 4 of them on 2 colloses 10000 watts. and has yet to blow one. those are damn good woofs for the price.

Are those pioneer subs louder then the JL? what about the incriminator audio 187s, two 12''s? i have one lethal injection 12'' and it was pretty decent.. for the pioneers i was gunna use a audiobahn rack mount 800rms amp, if i got the JLs, i was gunna use a Viper 300.1 I think 150 to each of those should be enough... and for the RE 12''s i would prolly do a small 400rms audiobahn amp

or I may use MA audio amps, they are on sale right now, and are usually affordable anyways, that way I can set up my front stage how I want to and rear fill.. and stay on budget

i would get nothing that says MA onit. you can get hifonics amps really cheap all over the place. The RE res get pretty loud and sound decent too. if you want something that will get really loud id suggest the RE sx. also roof flex and door flex isnt to hard to do i did it at 135 dbs which isnt to loud.
