Can anyone please give me the scoop on the JL 10W0 Subwoofer? This is discontinued, does anyone know when? How does this sub compare with what is out now? I have a stealth box that has this one in it and it was suppose to be a 6 month old box, but the JL web site doesn't show this one as the stock sub. Any help is appreciated before I go out and buy an amp to match to this.

Thanks
Dave

Thanks for the info. I did find the owners manual pdf, but I guess I was more concerned that I bought a Stealth Box that had the sub replaced since it was advertised as only being 6 months old. I guess since you had one back a ways and since its now discontinued that I bought a box that someone took the stock sub out and replaced with a cheaper sub.

And yes, it's coming out. I'm heading off to my installer this am, so I'm a little p**sed that I'm going to have to keep it, and take it apart and get it up to specs, for what I paid for it. I should have gotten educated before I bought it, that's my fault. But it was advertised being 6 months old and I knew what was in the ones that my local Tweeter was selling and I guess I just crossed up my numbers.

If I'm going to get into this and start taking stuff apart, I don't want to have to do it again when the sub I bought doesn't perform to where I wanted it.

Thanks for the help

Did you buy this from Ebay? I was watching one on Ebay and bid on it...bit I was surprised at the final price.
