DC lvl4 15" vs lvl4 XL 15"??


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, new to the forum here, decided to join up! Getting straight to the point, I'm looking to change up my system.

I've had 2 Memphis Mojo 15" Subs on a Memphis Mojo 4k

Currently I have two Rockford Fosgate T2 12" Subs on a Rockford Fosgate 2500BD-CP

Simply to state, I want louder, than both of these setups. I'm trying to sell my Rockford stuff and I went to a few Team North East SPL competitions and saw a lot of people running DC Audio and figured maybe they would be my next stop! Now I'm told these subs are sort of underrated and can take a little more rms for daily use. Is this true?

I want to go back to 2 15's and I am going to do a front facing box this time too. I will find an amplifier after I make a decision on the subs.

Should I do 2 lvl4 or 2 lvl4 XL 15's? I'm curious as to how much these subs can take for daily beating!

Thanks for the help everyone!

Haha! Thats what I'm feeling like! I just need to match an amp with them suckers, idk whether an rms matching 3000w amp would be too little and I should do a 4 or 5k amp?

a 5k is a perfect match to a pair of XLs in my opinion

if you were doing a single XL id keep your RF T2500BDCP that amp is a beast and i wouldnt even sell it, i love mine :drinks:

Exactly what they said, can run off one all day, so that's going to be my purchase! As for the rockford amp, its definitely nice, however I don't really like how it prioritizes its power more on the lower notes. Sure I love my lows and its mainly what I listen to but when a song with a higher not comes on, I gotta crank my sub level up on my deck. I'm putting it up for sale this weekend on caraudioclassifieds and such, since I don't have enough posts for here yet.

Going in my 02 impala... 80+ lbs per sub, not going to work with the khc2400's already back there otherwise I would be looking at them for sure!
