ive used both about to go for 2 15s what do you think would hit harder on 1100 rms?

the jls are more expensive and i personally think the kickers are stogner built

the w3s dustcap and cone give out after a while

Since what you've "heard and used" pretty much sucks, what you said is accurate. I was gonna suggest SE's as well. A little cheaper than the W3, (not sure about the kicker) but I am for sure that they will make both of those look silly.

i cannot get re ses for anything near the price of a w3 in fact i can't even get them i can't order stuff from the net either thats a headache but thanks for the advice i guess since ive been impressed with subs that 'suck' i must be even more impressed with their bigger grothers [Roll Eyes] so maybe ill just save for a w7 or some square kickers, thanks for the advice

1) Since you've been "impressed with subs that suck" You must be deaf in one ear and can't hear out of the other.
2) You don't order RE woofers off the internet, you have to call them.

3) DO SOME RESEARCH.

Obviously you have a computer or can use a freinds so go to ddaudio.com find their number and call them. The lead time on a sub is about 2-3 weeks and you will love what you get. I love the sq out of mine and the output when I want spl. It is not a big hassle to order at all.

Keeping it real. REAL LOUD THAT IS!!

I find it hard to believe that you can get a W3 cheaper than a SE, used or new.
Call RE, if you dont wanna pay for both just get one SX15 and it will blow away the W3's or cvr.

I suppose if you HAVE to get one or the other, id go with the W3. And the SE or SX would kick its a$$

1) the point is that w3s and cvrs do not suck, if you think so you are wrong

2) i cannot call re and order subs i live in jamaica, i do not have a credit card, i do not have a mailing adress, i can get w3s for about 150 bucks a piece and cvrs for just less than 100 bucks a piece

3) thats what im doing...

Jomo, in all testing we have done, and dollar savings, the VR's will be awesome compared to the JL's. I think you'll be happy....
