Default What amp?

I'm interested in getting 3 JL W0s in a JL vantage box. I was wondering what amp would be good enough to power these subs? Would the JL 500/1 be good enough for it? Also does anyone know where I can find these products online?

A JL 5001 would be more than enough. Even the rear channels bridged from a JL3004 will be plenty. My buddy has that setup and it sounds nice...

the 500/1 amp should be enuff and then some. the W0's only take 100 watts max. so maybe a smaller amp would do just fine

w0's are very efficient. dont need much to make them sound decent. i had a set of 2 powered by a weak RF and then a kicker zr240. the kicker only put out 240watts but was plenty of power.

That JL 500/1 amp is a ing bad *** amp. You should get that. In order for you to get your system sounding good, you should get a big amp, cause you can always adjust the power. You don't have to use all the power running from it. Thats just my $0.02....
