I have one 10" sub in a custom ported box that I ordered off ebay powered by a 400 watt audiobahn amp. All I can say is damn. It hits hard clean. Its the cleanest bass I ever heard by one 10. Big ups to JL Audio. This sub is worth the penny. I enjoy quality sound it pushes out.

I bought 2 of these and put them in a mtx thunderform box with a hifonics 1400 amp in my 2004 Dodge Ram quad cab and they far exceeded my expectations. They bump as hard if not harder than my two 12" 1600 watt rms subs that I have in my car. Would recommend these to anyone over any other sub in its class.

I ordered (2) of the JL 10W3v3-4 from Sonic Electronix approximately on or around Feb/March of 2012 after reading some good reviews on the subs. Well, I guess this has to be one of the worst purchase I have ever made. Today, "Oct 11, 2012" I woke up early to the BIG 3 and also to run a bigger size wire from the battery to my amp. When opening the trunk of my car, I looked just to find out that both of the subs dust cap had came off. I have both subs hooked up to a JL Audio Slash 500/1v2 that I had bought from Sonic. I am only giving each sub 250w RMS which means they are not even pushed to their recommended continuous RMS power range and the dust caps on both subs already fell apart. Now, talk about good craftsmanship.

2 10" JL Audio3v3-4, paralleled down to 2 ohm. Amp is a G1700 Mono and can handle the load, won't push them up to optimum at 2ohm which is 500rms but takes them close enough for me. Box is sealed and fits nicely in the back of my Nissan Maxima, ported might be louder but I wanted the clean slap to the back of the head when a drumbeat kicks one out not a synthesizer. Kept the factory head and used the jl cleansweep to level out the signals for the amp to work with.
