BassHeadGibson Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 I plan on doing four AudioQue HDC3 18" Woofers soon (Copper Coil). I was wanting to know if there were any woofers that can handle as much or more power and are as good or better than for around the same price. If anyone can let me know something that would be great, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdog Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 aq hdc is a very good woofer but if i had my choice it would be the sundown audio z-18 but my opinion might be bias http://store.soundsolutionsaudio.com/products/sundown-audio-z-v3-18-sub-woofer-1500w-rms-subwoofer.html REP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassHeadGibson Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 It has to be in the 300-400$ . Between the Skar and BL they both say 1500 RMS. But usually a woofer can handle more than it's rated for by its company. How much can each one handle? (Playing Music Daily). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdog Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 i know for a fact that the bl takes up to 2000 clean rms all day long and i would think the skar will do the same maybe more not sure never had a skar REP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassHeadGibson Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 I might just do 4 BL's then. Thanks bro, you've really helped ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lem43606 Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 From doing a direct swap from AQ to Fi the Fi woofers sound a lot crisper and deeper... the AQs are a pretty punchy woofer but yes they do get loud. i think youll be happier running the BLs over the AQs 2 Fi BTL N2 18s Fully LoadedSundown Audio NS-1Kenwood 845 HU Clarion EQ4 Juicebox 3100sKnu Wire"Big 3"Mechman 270a156.3dBTeam GG.

BassHeadGibson Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Yeah man, all I am looking to do is get louder. I don't even really care about SQ right now, just loudness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdog Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 i agree with lem the bls sound great and get loud but give them a week to break in as i noticed they get way loader as they do more than most subs REP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassHeadGibson Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 What amp would you recommend that's not hella expensive? I run an AudioPipe 3k right now but that won't do and it can't be strapped. What brand? What Size? and how many? I don't want it to be a cheapo Amp but I don't want it to be SUPER expensive like an AQ Amp . Like AudioPipe does a good job and it's not insane expensive. The 3k was 355$.
