hello there,

i found a jbl gti sub. it looks pretty mean but i was wondering if anyone knows anything about them or has owned one.

thanks

ive never used a jbl product, but ive seen lots of people say they get pretty loud and will have some great sound quality.

u already buy it or looking into it?

I've been watching this build and rebuild from the UK for a while now and he is using the JBL products. Very long thread but an interesting read:

The GTi series are very nice, which model do you have exactly? There are the newer style GTi's that have been around since around 2000 that are very deep and look identical minus some flashy accents on the more recent ones. Then you have the old GTi series of woofers from back in the 90's that look more like a normal woofer(motor wise) and have the W surround like a PA speaker.

I had the plain looking version of the newer models, the MK1(as opposed to the blingy-er MK2) for a short while and it was quite impressive. It uses the Differential Drive motor topology which is basically the opposite approach as the XBL^2 motor in order to get the same results, an extended flat BL curve which gives you lots of clean output.

I have had experience with the older models (late 90s) they were really nice drivers.

Fun fact about the wGTI's (all that don't look like a PA driver), if you blow it, it's done for. They CAN NOT be reconed, not even by JBL. They literally throw them in the trash. Both coils are edge-wound flat wire, it's a pretty spiffy design.

no real exp. with the subs i heard a single 10 once and it sounded damn good....

SEFUGI!!! thanx for postin the link to that saxo that lil thing is clean....n im totally jackin the door pulls made of 1/0 ga. wire idea

Am I the only one that read through that imagining the accent? lmao....

I had two 12's back in the late 90's that were very nice!
