You think those will outperform the JL 10W6V2
KAPPA PERFECT10 ?
I have installed all three and can not say that one is really any better than the others. All sound very nice - the 10W6 is maybe a bit more natural sounding than the Alpine Type-R, but its in the trunk. Not sure that it is worth 2X the price

JL 10W6 $250+ internet (MSRP $380)
Alpine Type-R $100+ internet (MSRP $200)

If I went with the Infinity I would go with the Kappa Perfect 10VQ - allows you to change the Q to better adapt/tune for different enclosures.

My experience with the Pioneer subs has been less than positive.

William,


What is the difference between the Kappa Perfect 10VQ and Kappa Perfect 10DVQ ?

Wow - older amp.....

With that amp bridged you should get around 500Wrms into 4 ohms.

You either need a 4 ohm SVC (Single Voice Coil) sub or a 2 ohm DVC (Dual Voice Coil) sub. You need to wire the 2 ohm DVC in series to yield a 4 ohm load.

The key is gettting a 4 ohm load - your amp will shut down with a 2 ohm load.
