the amp that matches the SPL's in the guide is perfect for them

Please note: that is a 4channel amp, if running the SPL's, bridge the amp,
if running hertz, use just 2 channels, as they can not handle as much power

Hi ash, Just thought id quote this bit, ive got some JL VR650Csi Components, do you think i should bridge them or just use the 2 channels?

Thanks

JL's run off a vibe?

two things:

1. you asked weather it should be bridged or not, giving the impression it was the alpine amp i linked to

2. seriously, why run JL's off vibe gear? lol

[machevelli7777]

Mustve not read that bit, assuming it was any 4 channel amp. And whats wrong with Vibes amps, it sounds pretty damn good to me. What would be the difference anyhow?

Please explain, im still learning obviously.

Thanks

vibe = shite sound quality
JL - good sound quality

combine the two, and get the shite end of the SQ

need i say more.. lol

[machevelli7777]

Well tbh mate im happy with it, but id like to hear it with the JLe2150 you were talking about. You go to any car audio meets? Like Talkaudio? They seem to have a few.

[Ashleyp]

im never really on TA these days mate.. im not a huge fan of car audio now, track route is where im heading

so, selling up on all my expensive / budget audio equiptment that i own lol

maybe inthe future, if im rich enough to have two cars, ill have a nice daily driver with a decent SQ audio set up

should really log on to TA though, none of my stuff is selling on here lol

[machevelli7777]

[Ashleyp]

not had it that long, bought it, and its just been sat here un wired up

tbh im too lazy to lay the wires in my car for it

will be running a pair of rainbow SLC 230 kick's

[machevelli7777]

They look nice mate, big crossover aswell as the a bigger tweater.

Well i think i may leave it as im quite happy with what i have atm, you have pulled a string in me though, im wondering wether im not actually getting the full potential out of my JL's.

[Renniecoleman]

Well done on getting all the links back up and working, great help to everyone

[Renniecoleman]

what else you selling mate, cause i cant get in to the for sale section, not up to 100 posts yet, nearly there though
