Best "Pack or Recone options" for a 15'' XL


Recommended Posts

I have an XL which the neck joint failed on it.. I was throwing about 3kish daily to it and the thing was loving ever bit of it... It flexed my car super hard and would hit down about 26hz really well. Box is tuned @ 33hz and is 3.4 cubes my 3sixty.2 is set @ 28hz filter and -5db on 25-40hz on the sub side. I'm going to be burping it with around 5k going to it... But daily wont put more than 3.5k to it. Very clean voltage doesn't drop below 12.8 full tilt.

I was thinking 5 mediums 1or2 stiff spiders but I still want the lows to hit well... Just wondering if anyone has this and how it hits.

Also have heard of some surround strengthening options would you recommend that?

The sub is still playing i have now ripped one side of the leads in half because the neck joint failed. Its playing on 1 coil with 1.8k going to it and still is one of the loudest best sounding subs in my area :) DC FTW!!!

Corona jeff runs 2 ab 1100s on his 4xls with that spider configuration.I had it also but had a messed up eq that sent a 4k plus clip to my subs. I didn't lose my triple joint but I ripped my spiders.. now I have 4 stiffs 1 med and they sound great.it depends on what your trying to accomplish I've talked to rusty a lot about this. The stiff break in and will loosen up the med all though thinner keep there stiffness longer

I've been talking to Rusty :) He has been a huge help i just came to the idea of asking you guys who have used the setup and also know what your doing! It helps cause he said the extra spiders will change the fs. I just wanna be able to slam the low notes still and be able to burp it on the occasion! Thanks for all the input guys SMD rocks :drinks:

The only thing about adding more spiders is that it will take longer to break in.

That i have no problem with.. When i had my 2011 T2's they took 3 months of daily pounding with 3k to each to break in fully lol... I just love this sub in every way more than any other brand I've had... Best sounding and loudest for the $$$ by sooo far lol

Now if I could just get a neo :shrug:
