If you go to ED the amp is listed as 1300W. On paper this looks like a much more powerful sub than the 13 ultra.
adwilk. ED gives excursion on the driver as 30mm. If thats x-max and its reasonably linear, it will outperform the JL drivers, particularly at the bottom end. Even if that is x-mec, you are going to get enough x-max to give you a lot of displacement. The real question is how well designed the driver is and how much linear travel it has.
Those JL drivers are amazing, but over time, the rest of the market has caught up. For the money, I would go with the Mal-X 18" over the JL drivers if I were to do DIY.
