alright so i had the day off monday and went around to a couple stereo shops to listen to some subs to see what i want, was pretty much thinking a jl 8w7 or the new boston g5 10.... figure tweeter was my best bet since they carry both boston and jl... they didn't have either sub in stock or anything to compare it to really... and the dude i was talkin to was tryin to upsell me so bad on everything, wanted to know why i didn't want a clean sweep... he siad the best thing about them was the 8.5v pre outs, and they tell everyone they do an install for to get one...(sounds like a cash cow to me) i told him i had 9.5v with my loc and was all set thanks....he also quoted me 600$ for the 8w7 in the jl box. i went down the street to a local stereo shop (they carry jl and alpine) and he had a 10w7 i could listen to but with a 500w amp not the 300 i have, he told me that he would think the 300 would push the 10 just fine, i told him according the jls webssite they don't suggest using that lil power for the 10, that why i was lookin for the 8, though he told me 500 for the 8 in the jl box and 600 for the 10 (floor model 50 off) and lo and behold also tried to push the clean sweep on me, though his sellin point was the line in it offers... so since i didn't get to listen to either sub i was lookin for what do you guys think i should swing towards with 300w (jl so it is slightly over that i would think)
appreciate the help, and apologize for the length but i needed to b**** about the lack of a good stereo shop in the area...!!
