hey..... i agree that there is cheaper stuff out there then JL.... and some really good sounding stuff...... but thats why ever car isnt 40K+, and all housing isnt 300K+.... you can buy and cheaper house and a cheaper car and still get something good..... but those things that are sold for more, are that way for a reason........ JL could make lower priced stuff... in fact they do (E class amps, W1V2 subs, TR speakers) and they are good products...... but there higher end stuff is priced the way it is for a reason, and its not because JL just wants to overprice things lol........ and some other brands you are compairing are great too.... I love Diamond audio.... but they have 500 dollar plus subs and 600 dollar speakers... and wow i remember selling D7 amps that were over 1000...... so are they over priced too???? I fight the price game daily with customers and I have for the 10 years I have been selling/installing car audio.... but I have sold more JL and over hi end brands than any.... and my clints are always happy, and return to see me

The only thing i think that is really overpriced in JLs line is the W7. I could personally never justify $800 for a single 12. I would take 2 Arc Audio Flatlines over a single 12W7 any day, probably have more output and comprable soundquality for around the same price. Thats just me. Everything else i think is fairly priced within the competition. My XXKs retrail for about the same as JL Slash amps with comprable power, Diamond D7, etc. Same with speakers, untill recently when the ZRs were released and the XRs were thier highest they werent overpriced. I personally didnt like the XRs (havent heard the ZRs yet), but they were comprably priced with similar sounding Focals, Quarts, Boston, etc.

Most of the time the whole JL is overpriced issuse rests soley with the W7...and ill agree with that...
