didn't drag the RTA out to check cut off at 200Hz, but sounds like around 200 to me...

Thanks Guys for talking me from 500Hz to 200Hz, 500Hz would have been to high for sure.... 200Hz is sounding a touch higher than I needed. but will do the job....

Anywho,

Id just pop it in and see how it sounds to you. Just because JL recommends that size doesnt mean it will work best for you and your application. You might like it better, who knows. Im betting you wont be able to tell much of a difference though...
Its always good to experiment with boxes to see what you like best.
I think you said you were running 700 or so watts??? If so, 8 gauge is definatley to small, 4 gauge at a minimum is what I would be running, which it sounds like you did.


Jwool...The D6s are a pretty nice sounding woofer. Played with a few and I actually do like them, actually considered a pair of 10s to downgrade but decided against it.
I hear people saying they really like to be powered in that 700-1000wrms range to really come alive. Any that Ive heard where not being ran over thier RMS, so I couldnt comment on that, but even being ran at RMS or below (which is the type of setup Ive heard them on) they did pretty good.

What model amp??

F150truckin a buddy of mine was in his stand and saw a deer go by but was just out of reach from his bow. The deer headed towards his truck a ways away. As the deer got closer to the truck he hit the panic on his remote sending it back toward him and came in range. The 12 point rack is on his wall. Gotta love the range of an astrostart.
