which sub should i use Jl audio please help...
i have 2 Jl audio W3v2 subs one is a
10W3v2 D2 and the other is a 10W3v2 D4.
the box i will be using them in is a JL audio Maxima Stealth box.
I don't know much about audio so any help would be appreciated.

If u r only using one i would go with the 10W3v2 D2. That way u can power it with a 1ohm amp. U'll b getting more power for ur money running an amp at 1ohm. Do u have an amp already? If so let us know...it may make a difference if u do.

if that amp is 1 ohm stable then yes, i'd get sub that's dvc 2 ohms. if that amp can't take the load, it'll just overheat and go into protection mode. otherwise, i'd wire the 2 ohm dvc sub into a series yielding a 4 ohm load....which most amps are stable at this level.

I was looking for one for a while, but I couldn't find one so I got a JL 12w3v2 and built a ported box for it instead. That sub and that box will definately give you more than you would expect from one 10.
