Which box would make loud clear pounding bass? I was told that the JL Audio with 2 8W1s was better because the box was made for those subs and the Q-Logic box is not as good because it is made to fit any 8" sub. Is this true?
Or would I be better off with a Q-Logic box and 2 8W3s?

Opinions please.

 

I don't necessarily agree that the JL Audio with 2 8W1's will be better. I've heard the JL Audio with the 2 8W1's and the Q-Logic with 2 8W3's and also with other brands of 8" subs. They all sounded good, but bear in mind that the sound output that comes out of the enclosure depends on a few variables, the quality of amplifier you power it with, the head unit, what frequency you have it crossed at..... The type of music you listen to also plays in that factor. I chose the Q-Logic enclosure with the Boston Acoustics Pro Series Subs because my ears told me it sounded tighter and deeper. Not everyone may agree with me, and its ok because i built my system tailored to my ears and the type of music i listen to. So my suggestion is to go out to your local stereo shop and listen to both set ups and let your ears decide (Just make sure that the set up your listening to is not powered by $ 1,000 amp or some super high end amp). Also ask them what amps are powering the subs, don't be afraid to ask questions, because you're the one thats gonna pay for it. A good stereo shop will show you all options and make a recommendation, if they try to push you on one particular brand then i would walk away and go to another one. So take your time and demo all brands. Hope this helps you out. Best of luck on your choice!!
