HazeGrey75 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 I just adjusted my order after I upgraded my power from 1200rms to 1800, so I added level 4 soft parts. I figured I would get more sound out of this then over powering the 3s to much and under powering the 4s. What advantages did this spur of the moment choice get me? Is this set up going to change the T/S so much that I will need a new box? Is this going to function better in the ported box built to level 3 specs? 3.7 before displacment tuned to the mid 30s. My space is limited so going any larger is a challange, running of a Kicker 06ZX1500.1. 1/0 OFC big 3, yellow top, 1/0 in CCA to the back. I will be changing to 1/0 OFC and adding a small battery before they get here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppyrkr Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 I ordered a lvl3 with upgrades and plan on giving it 1k, I think u made a good choice ive never been a fan of under powering a sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazeGrey75 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Ive never been a fan over overpowering a sub by as much as I was going to, 700 to a 600 sub is good but 900 to a 600 was a bit much for daily 1 hour drive. I'm no noob but you know how it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwright27 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 I like the level 3 coil better but that's just me.

But what would get louder? 3 or 3 with upgrade I could be wrong but they should be about the same loudness ( same motor and magnet), id just feel safer with the upgrade when dealing with that much power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
