Double the cone area, Same power? (kinda)


Recommended Posts

as alot of yal know, im running 1 DC XL 18" on a RF T2500BDCP @ 2 ohms. the sub is a D1

ive had the idea Floating around of getting another D1 XL 18" and doing two 18"s on the RF T2500BDCP. Only diffrence is the ohm load would drop from 2 ohm, to 1 ohm. but its the constant power series amp.

Yal think its worth doubling my cone area?

ive really been thinkin about it. these amps have also benched over 3K @ 1 ohm. my birthsheet was that high but was damn close.

if i do, ill run the 18s for a lil bit. then they will go in my burb on a DC 5k along with my DC 175.4 i have alot of work to do on that truck so thats down the road. then i wanna have one SMD 18" on two of these RF T2500BDCP

As long as you have enough room for the second 18, it will definitely be a nice gain.

If you have an issue with airspace for a pair of 18's, you may get more output, but change the frequency response.

Current system:

1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s

Previous systems:

2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz.

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.
