So, I went to a local shop to see if they had any specials on JL Audio. They no longer carry JL either! I can't find anyone in town that does. The guy starts talking about Boston, which would be OK if they sounded all right with my other JL stuff, and wanted to see my car. I have kind of a ghetto looking subwoofer setup. Its an 8W3-D4 in an old (10 years) Clarion powered tube enclosure with the onboard amp bypassed. The tube is beat to hell and looks like I dug it out of the dumpster. He starts talking about making a custom enclosure and blah, blah, blah. I have it running off the rear channels of the JL 300/4 and the front channels power XR650-CS. My head unit is the ES MP770. "Lets hear it", he says. I love doing this! Turn it on and it starts playing Tom Sawyer by Rush. His jaw hits the floor. "That's just that 8? Nah, you've got something beneath the carpet!" I had to show him the spare tire before he would believe me! Ah, the power of JL!
Anyway, why doesn't anyone carry JL anymore?
