    Those jl patents expiring opened up the rest of the world to this type of design.
    And hertz isnt 100% engineered in house several if their amps share boards with polk, and a few others not to say they dont require high qc to make production unlike some companies

      @mattm2684 it's a toss up. What your dealer carries typically makes the choice. They do model slightly different. The hertz digs a touch deeper but honestly it's not enough to make a difference.
      The alpine r2 is a good bit louder but the price reflects that

    I know you haven't finished this series but , if possible could you grab an mb quart discus shallow mount and possibly the ct sounds hydra.. my reasoning is I am building an active 3 way set up in my sl550 and I'll be building an enclosure in the kicks for an 8" sub. I know you are doing 10's but , it will give me a very good idea.. @@hifivector
