Which sub setup would sound better?

[TurboLaxx]

Right now I have a 12" Kicker Comp VR sub in a bandpass box that came with the car. I am wondering if I should get a 12" JL Audio W6v2 in a sealed box. I want bass but i don't want a lot of distortion. I think I might get too much distortion if i put the W6v2 in a bandpas box,but i'm not really sure. Let me know which you think might hit harder. Thanks.

Why stop at one W6? Go two W6s in a sealed box. You will have good sound

I have had many sytems and jls subs hit 3x's harder in an open box than in a sealed same with kickers. I had the same ones as you with an audiobahn 3201 amp and ma audio digital cap. Those hit nice and sub hard. I abused my subs day in and day out never busted or got distorted. Keep that one and get another.

you can go jl sealed, just make sure your amp is the truth

JL's are the best. You may need a different box then you had with the VR. The better the amp the cleaner the sound. As far as type of box I have 2 JL 12" W6's in a ported box and it hits nice, clean, and very loud!
