simplemindz Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 hey im new to all this so if anyone can help i would really appreciate it. i have a nissan ext. cab mini truck. with a 200 amp alternator and 4 yellow top optima batteries. i have an mtx te4001d amp that is rated at 3750 @ 1ohm and was measured at 4080 @ 1ohm. i was gonna buy 1 dc audio xl m2 18 rated at 2200 rms to power it up with the mtx amp. but lost the opportunity to buy it so i ended up buying 2 dc audio level 4 m2 15s rated at 1400 rms a piece. i was just wondering if i can get louder with 2 of the level 4 15s then 1 xl 18. anything helps. thanks.
will77530 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 impossible to answer in theory its more cone area so yes, but it will really come down to the box design

Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.
simplemindz Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Posted March 16, 2012 Thanks. It was just a curious question because I seen guys with 1 18 hit louder than other guys with 2 15s or 4 12s
ChevyBoy95 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 you will never really know until you get an XL 18 and try them both. the reason you cant say so and so system is louder is due to many variables, cabin shape, cabin size, resonant freq of the cabin, box size, box tuning, the sub, ohm loads, ohm rise (on burps), power from the amp, amperage draw resulting from the different ohm loads (if they vary), cone area, excursion, etc. Best Score to Date : 160.5 dB Outlaw (47Hz)[4 XM 15's & 2 Taramps Bass 12k's] BL : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/147800-chevyboy95s-4-15s-7krms-wall-1533-db-on-half-power/YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/hitemwiththeflex/
simplemindz Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Posted March 16, 2012 understood. with the right build these level 4 m2 15s can still do some damage right?
ChevyBoy95 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 2 level 4 15s can do plenty of damage, just make sure and do them justice with a nice box.
