Do yourself a huge favor and never buy that JL overpriced garbage.
Instead go to ficaraudio.com and buy a Fi Q, or dcsoundlab.com and buy a level 3.

Sorry, didn't realize you had already bought it, sounded like you were looking at one.
Can you still return it? If so, I elect that option.

IMO JL is awesome quality sound stuff. Haji says it's overpriced garbage, but the JL equipment I've experienced is awesome

In the future, your best bet for posting photos here might be:
  1. Upload the picture to imageshack.
  2. Copy the url from the "Direct Link" box on imageshack
  3. Click on the insert image icon in your forum post message window
  4. Paste the direct link from imageshack

That will allow your photo to be displayed directly in your post. That's what I always do, at least.

I agree, JL is some nice stuff. It is expensive and I believe just as good or better can be found for less. As mentioned above the DC and the FI are great products. Many others are out there too. DIY Mobile Audio forum is a great place to find some quality stuff.

Trust me, compare it to a Fi Q and you'll be amazed.

I have, I'm not saying Fi Q is bad at all, I just don't think JL is overpriced garbage

Well see if they were cheaper I wouldn't say much about them, but they are in the $150+ range. For that price the Fi SSD, Fi Q, or a used Fi BL blows it out of the water in terms of power handling and Xmax. Plus you can have Fi's reconed if they blow, some thing I highly doubt with JL.
