i would put max 200 wrms to each, I have heard some good stuff about the kenwood subs. Comparable subs would be the new sony subs and pioneer subs.

JL 12 W0 or 12" KFC-W3025DVC (kenwood subposted above) which would be better in a sealed box?

JL is always > Kenwood

I'd have a tough time picking between Infinity Perfect and JL subs.

I haven't heard that exact model, but I have heard some of the higher model kenwood subs. They sounded pretty good in my opinion. Wouldn't be a bad choice.

I would probably take the kenwood sub over the jl W0 just for the fact that I have heard some really good things about the "tornado" coned kenwood subs and I think if your going jl audio you should get atleast a W3.
