Im putting an 8" sub behind my seats in my MX5. I like tight and punchy bass which won't be a problem with an 8" sub, I just would like to know the better route.

I've used JL in the past, I've used Infinity in the past...both have far superceded my expectations in quality and noise produced.

My options are:

The 8" Infinity Reference (250w RMS, 1000w Peak, 4oHm), $50~

or

The 8" JL Audio W3 (250w RMS, 500w Peak, 4oHm), $150+~

Is there really any sense just paying for the name with JL Audio? The Infinity has awesome reviews all across the board as well.

Thank in advance!

 

I would say JL Audio but then again im Biased lol....

I havent heard the Infinity but JL Audio never let down!!
dont agree with the High Price either but the Quality Sound is Assured!!


lol for the price you can buy 2 Infinity's

 

^ I too aggree with JL audio, but im biased because i am running 2 JL 10" W6. IMO i wouldn't cheap out ona sub woofer as its gonna get daily use and in the long run, you dont want it to end up breaking or ripping prematurely. JL's warrenty is also pretty good

 

We need more details... There's no 1 sub fits all spaces/enclosures... Personally, I'd look at something like an SA-8 if you can run a ported box or a SoundSplinter RL-i8 or True Bass Ultra 8 if you can't. Just my 2 cents though...

works in .7 tuned to 30hz

 

^Those are pretty nice too... Seem 'em up close, and they're definitely beefy...
