Its not any different than the JL fanboys and their not all watts are equal. They work great I have yet to hear another 6.5
in lowers that hits me in the chest like the PRVs. Yes there may be better ones depending on your budget and set up but
you can’t go wrong with PRVs In lowers.

I prefer Beymas, but they require grinding and are not exactly "budget friendly". But DAMN they sound good!

Just make sure u picked up on the grinding / cutting the corners off of them.
That lil tidbit might deter some folks.

There is speaker that wasnt mentioned that works well in the lowers that doesn't need any grinding with a high SPL. That is pretty dam punchy but needs fo be bandpassed. Which is the Crescendo UN6.5. It is pretty dam budget friendly.

How much grinding are we talking about? Still haven't puled the trigger on a set for my lowers. Was going to run with Hertz SVs but not afraid to modify a set. Any pics that can be shared? Thanks.

I am adding the lowers to a BT 4180 with a flashed GTS unit along with 2 BT355 line levelers. Do I need to do anything else to run the PRV's?
