Best Amp, Sub, and Seller for my needs!!!
I bought a JL XD500/3 for my 2006 Dodge Dakota Club Cab SLT. Nobody else online had a previous year's model still for sale, I was able to save quite a bit of money with this version instead of the JL XD500/3 that only added features I don't need. Then during checkout I luckily had a credit card glitch that needed to be sorted out over the phone. After calling in to get the order processed, I spoke to James, and he had everything handled for me. He confirmed the price, he confirmed the terms of the warranty, and he confirmed that my plan to marry this amp to a 10w3v3 was a good match. He also mentioned a special I wasn't aware of. Because of his great service and making sure I ware aware of the savings, I returned as soon as I could to purchase the 10w3v3. a month later after finishing my rough install, I couldn't be happier. The 10w3v3 slams hard with this amp only set at about 60%, and the amp doesn't even get hot after 30mins of straight pounding. CREATIVE is the best!!! If only I had known of them when i bought my head unit and components...
