well put it this way, the w6v2 was in a JL Audio recommended box volume, and is rated 500w RMS by JL Audio, so I powered it with JL Audio's 500w RMS 500/1 monoblock.
in any case, JL Audio lied to me, cause the w6v2 blew
#1 the w6v2 cannot handle 500w RMS, thus they lied about the specs
OR
#2 the 500/1 deliver way more than 500w RMS, thus they lied about the specs
and which IDMAX you heard? the v3 is significantly improved from their initial v1 batch. the v3 has redesigned radiator, redesigned basket, new surround, new spider etc.
