You'll prolli be louder with the single 15 IMO, regardless of the 2 12s having the cone area advantage... I'd stick with the single 15" setup.

Good luck, that's all i can say.

Yep that model SX, but the price they have listed IMO is a lil bit high. Check w/ DC about prices on LVL4s also.

Yea i live in FL for the time being, prolli be moving again in the next 6 months or so. Also don't think that the 140+ is a shoe in w/ 2 15s + 3kw, I've seen more equipment do lower scores just in poor enclosures/setups.

Couldn't explain it better myself and for the time being, be very careful with your voltage. Keep an eye on your volt meter and play it little with car off or @ idle.

Are they at least set with a DMM or properly by ear if you're used to doing that??

Link doesn't work, but more than likely yes... The older 12 spoke basket ones are some of the better subs IMO in the 1k-1500w range.

No mine is all from experience with more setups than i can remember... Id strongly suggest you run like a Kinetik 1400 under hood + 2 2000s or 2400s out back. I always say this, but if you're gonna spend the cash on the rest of your setup then don't skimp on electrical or security(alarm, tints, etc).

With 2 15s in a blowthrough off 3k and if you're not doing a 140+ @ dash all sealed up, then there is something wrong.

Old model RE SX 15 would be pretty nice lil setup off that power.

Just remember though, it's absolutely pointless to do 18s if u don't have the proper airspace/room for air to get back into the cabin. I can GUARANTEE that 2 15s with proper airspace(especially in a trunk car) will be louder than 2 18s in a small box, choked off from the cabin.

I always resin the insides of my boxes, but that's more out of habit from when i competed. You won't notice or feel any air getting out what so ever is u apply sealant.

That is silicone based sealant lol, if you're talking about the sealant used for caulking. Btw don't worry about the MDF itself leaking, only the edges do very very little.

I'm a fan of mine and they do get loud for having like 4k on the pair after imp. rise... I ran one daily for about a week or so @ 1ohm, while waiting for the second one to come in and it took 4k daily pretty well. I wouldn't suggest running that kind of power to each one, but 2k-3500 is perfect for them. The SQ is pretty good also, but is very box dependent. I got mine(silver cones) for an insane deal when my old shop closed down or I wouldn't have them. For that price/power it's a toss up IMO.

Silicone sealant, the stuff they use in bathrooms and what not... Like a couple dollars for a tube, apply a decent bead on the inside edges of the box. Then swipe it with ur finger to push it down, like doing a poon smell test.

That would be fine under hood, but also include 2 other big batts(powermaster 3100, Kinetik 2400, NSB90, etc). With 3k+ daily, I'd definitely suggest u run an HO alt... Anywhere from 200-300amp would do well, i'd suggest 250a and up though. Scores wise, who the hell knows lol... Could be anywhere from 135-150+ depending on enclosure, voltage, imp. rise, etc. I know you want people to "hear you coming" but please don't be another one of the idiots who sits @ red lights or pulling into gas stations at full tilt.

Are you serious?? If so that is truly sad that a shop doesn't understand how/where to place the mic. Scores were far from anything legal in any org. then... Personally I'd go back there and ask to re-test stating that they are fucking idiots.

Without question the 24 12s.

Exactly wht i was gonna say... Hopefully it wasn't an old Epic 160 lol.

With the money/power range needed listed, there is no better amp than the AP 1500D.

If you're planning on sticking with those subs for awhile I'd run the MB amp... G/l running 3k daily to a pair of those, I ran a pair of 12s a lil while back on an Orion 2500D @ 1ohm and they got very stinky very quickly.

The single best thing i've seen in awhile, thank you for your contribution.

Or like other on here speeding tickets, to be cool you gotta get more than 2 though. Btw congrats on the license

Brembo, Wilwood, SSBC, or Rotora will all be top notch quality and performance.

That sucks bro, just be careful and get well soon.
