Other subs that take as much or more power than an SMD?


Recommended Posts

Whoever said the dd z 4" proto, if you want to shell out like $3000 for one sub, more power too you. I will challenge you though, I will take the same $3000 and buy subs and amps and be louder!

See, this is what I keep thinking, I could spend 2k on 2 18"s or $1600 on 4 Mayhem 15"s

i would spend 1600 on 3 DD9500s 15s or 18s and be killer with 3 subs. they will take that 14k if you have it actually daily no problem

Ok go back and re read your post and then think about how the op has 4 amps. Now explain to me how you run 3 subs on 4 amps.

Ok now that you are done thinking, make another suggestion that would actually work.

3 subs, 6 coils, do two amps strapped per 3 coils in parallel. :)~

I'm no expert, but I don't think having two amps that aren't strapped on the same sub is the best of ideas, especially with such a low margin for error running 14,000 watts!

I ran two amps to one sub for a long time iwhtout issues. gain matching works.

OP I understand that you are trying to stay in a class but you are really at the breaking point of power for two drivers. If you were to go with 4 15s over the 2 18s you would be louder and more reliable. I dont think you are building just a burp monsgter are you?

Not a burp machine. I do think I am going to go with 4 15"s.

Kylar, are you an alcoholic?

Just wondering... your posts are getting incredibly random these days and every now and then you mention you're drinking...

Hey,...

Sorry I even said anything. At the op, sorry I even mentioned anything. And fuckin with your thread.

Bet your ass I partake,.. But, that isn't the issue. But, hey!?!.. no need to explain myself, or make any excuses. There isnt any. I know I'm alright here, with a select few members. Those that really know. No worries man.

I just got back into town. And wanted to say, I was wrong about going in this thread and sounding like a fuck face. if A mod doesn't gimme a vacation, I'll take my own.

Again , at the OP and the rest in this read,... Hey, I'm sorry.... I didnt mean to come off as a jerk off. I hope it all works out. That's all I got.,, And really, all I want, or care to say.
