Cone area question


Recommended Posts

I went from 4 Sony Xplod 12's in a sealed box wired down to 2 ohms my amp does like 768 watts at 2ohm, i went to a single 15 inch AA Havoc Dual 1 ohm, in a 3.7-4. cube ported box, my amp is supposed to put out 1200 watts at 1ohm, Either way this one 15 completely murders those Sony Xplods in almost every way. just my .02

I'm thinking about going with the SKAR deal with the two 12's in a box to replace this Sundown SA12 which is fine. Then buy a bigger amp in a few more weeks. I wonder if this is a good idea.

isnt 4 12's more cone area than 3 15s?

One 12 is about 113 sq in, one 15 is about 178 sq in. So 452 vs 534. Pretty big difference, but if he can fit 3 15s, he could fit 6 12s. That would be a bit more cone and similar enclosure volume

Yeah I was also thinking of buying another two 12s. But I've had my four 12s for about a month and some change, there wouldn't be cancellation issues if 4 of the 12s were more worn in than the other 2?
