I personally would go with the 5, even with that power.. just because ive been trying to blow mine, and they wont die... and i dont think the XLs would take this abuse... go with the 5s, you wont regret it Handle the abuse?

He knows teh Lv5 pretty well Hell, I'll be underpowering my Lv5s until I can get funds together to feed them 4kw each. Quote Bassless once again.

Ive had my xl ran at .5 ohm on my aq 2200 for 5 months till I changed amps lol you obviously dont know how i handle subs..... and yes, the XLs would have blown by the abuse i put my 5s through, ive had 4s, XLs AND now 5s... XLs would not handle 3kw a piece for 8+ hours like i have put my 5s through and you are also not factoring in voltage drop, or your impedance rise... if you had a 4x multiplier you could be sitting at 2 ohms, which that means that 2200 is doing what? 1200w? lol, im putting 3kw a piece clamped to my 5s, and I have played them for 8+ hours a day for 2 days... ask anyone at 2010 slamology Edited June 28, 2011 by Team_DC-Derrick Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

ABC Posted June 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) The XL's will perform about as good as the LV 5 on that amount of power. And you'll only need an extra battery to run the 2200. So go for it Edited June 28, 2011 by ABC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABC Posted June 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 If you've never had a system an xl is more then substantial I've been rocking xl s for a year and a half now they get loud. i myself have never had a system but one of my older buddies had a explorer with 12 12s and i would always listen to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather him get a sub he cant blow, than to get a sub he could possibly blow, then come back in a week and bitch about it.. and he can also upgrade to another 2200 down the road and run them strapped to the sub Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......
