Xcons dont need full power anyway, music is dynamic as well so you wont be seeing 4100 watts. Install a voltmeter and let her rip, if voltage drops than upgrade batteries to AGM if you havent already and add one if need be. Also do the big 3 wiring if you havent yet.

Really? I've had like 3 or 4 bodies in the trunk of my Challenger before

it's NOT going to work........... you NEED a FLUX CAPACITOR ........................

I think you would be fine. Just make sure you watch your voltage. And batts wont hurt

I wouldn't hesitate to buy a used 1.8 to get started. Easy enough to sell again.

Matt summarized the end, but the problem with the article is that it compares the wrong things. -DOF is related to the distance to the target. Long distance, long DOF. Getting a full body shot with a 50mm means you are long ways off. Not the ideal use of the lens. In that case the background is also disproportionately close minimizing bokeh. -The compared 1.2 to 1.4 to 1.8. Should compare 1.2 to 1.2, 1.4 to 1.4 and 1.8 to 1.8. Then they jump to F2 to compare. Almost all lenses are a bit soft shot wide open. Of course the further from center the softer they are (by definition wide open means you are using the whole spherical portion of the optic). Closing that optic down and getting closer to the center of it will ALWAYS sharpen it. That being said more curvature being exposed (1.2 most) will also always give you the best bokeh. -They forgot to worry about chromatic aberration (typically worse wide open) as this is also from the non-center of the lens. The 1.4 is much better than the 1.8 here -They also ignored lens flare. Often with in situ portraits there will be bright lights around you. The 1.4 deals with flare significantly better than the 1.8. -They also did this on a full frame. The 1.4 is completely different on a crop as much of the outer portion isn't used. The whole article is basically crap. Problem with a ton of them on the net. Almost like they expect their readers to not think. Drives me nuts.

Awesome, I will be picking up one.

Yes that's the plan street legal, but I was just asking if anybody had first hand experience with the w7's and knew if the JL specs where best for output (spl) or if I would get a better number from going bigger. I know fat box has a spl box that some say hits like crazy but there is no way to get the specs without buying the $600 box. Just thought somebody on here could give me some insight no big deal though I will figure it out myself. Maybe if I was asking a question about my crescendo amps and sundown subs I would get a little better answer on this site. Probably the JL hate I'm getting. Lol
