Ok, I was setting up for a sound competition for tonight, just doing a test run for a big competition in the city on the 1st, and well about 10-15 mins into running, I go to pop my hatchback and I am greeted with deafining rattles...(I blew my left sub) this is the second set of MTX's I've went through in the past year, I'm running all Apline Type R inside(which are always kickin some nice beats), but the MTX's aren't holding out on the low end... the 6000;s are nice, but they can't take much abuse for lon periods of time. I don't want to go with 8000's because they are too power hungry. I don't want to add a crazy new set of 12's, that will make my system sound like all bass. I like the way it sounds now, it's all evened out, but the subs just can't handle the power. what should I run with? right now I'm running a mono 6500D amp pushing the 2 6000 12's. I want something that will take abuse, will sound just as good or better, and is not power hungry.
I have 1000w cap, and I'm about to get my altenator rebuilt with a high performance coil, so I'm not afraid to try something new, I just don't want to take away from the overall suond quality. Please give me some input guys, I need to get this together before the 1st of June, so I can win some money to get the exterior and engine work done to my car...

yea i have 2 jl audio w7's and 2 planet audio 2250 amps. they are 3 ohms so its about 1300 or so per sub. JL is known not only for monster bass but also music and sound quality.

I used to have w3's and w6's both are good for the money. But the W7's are one of the top 5 subs out there right now if not at the top.

Last year I hit 168.7 with those subs. And they were brand new. I'm sure that I could hit louder now. Oh and last year I only had one of those amps. So now two of them and two 2 farad caps and like you said the recoiled altenator I will hit louder.

So either:

1. JL Audio W3
2. JL Audio W6
or
3. JL Audio W7.

also some good subs are the kicker ones. either square or sound. the L7's are really really good. I had one when they first came out. and damn. i just had the one 12 in a small ass box and a clarion 1000D amp. it was nice. like 150 or so.
