TheGreatJuice Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 How efficient are these subs? I've heard that as daily drivers they arent that efficient. Also how clean do they sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynndiesel Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 I had 2 15in hcca's on a aq 3500 and I loved em! got loud and low! wish I would never have sold em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatJuice Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 I'm running 1 RE XXX 12" on 2500w and I was looking at them. If I ever change subs, I'll probably get 2 10s in those. They fucking slam but I was hearing bad things about their efficiency as daily drivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynndiesel Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 they just need lots of power and they'll slam! 2000w per sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatJuice Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 That'll be my upgrade most likely haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padrino Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 This subs are great,but one thing before you buy them. expect to upgrade your electrical ,you need at least 280-320 amps @ idle to fully power them. alot of people will say save you money and buy something else. most people rate this subs low or average bcuz they dont have the juice to power them. i spend 1,320$ just on my electrical, 2) mechmans 270,1/0 solidcopper welding cable,dual alt bracket and the soldering.

TheGreatJuice Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Lol I couldn't run 2 alts if I wanted in my little fusion. If I had a 270 amp alt and another XS d3400 it would be fine up to 4000w+. I'm running 2500w on a stock 150 amp alt and a d3400 and it's going strong as long as I lay off at idle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr151 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 I am running two hcca 12.4 subs with two hcca2400d amps strapped together running at .5 ohms before rise and a 220 amp alt. with a single run of 1/0 gauge. I have not had any problems and the pound and sound clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
