Beanz Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Going ported to sealed or sealed to ported or wahts going on man? That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

Ninja_v1.0 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 No keep 15s, more cone are so it will be louder ^^^^------ What he just said is ALL wrong. There are a lot of factor to consider but just because you have more cone area does not mean you are going to be loud. Please dont listen to wtf this guy just said. For instance in my vehicle. Next year i am going to switch from 15's to 12's. I have a trunk vehicle and the reason being is that currently my subs are being choked because i am unable to gain any more port. when i switch to the 12's not only will i be able to give them proper airspace but i will also be able to give them proper port and in turn I should be louder. There are a lot of factors to include in this. Box, power, etc. If you have your current 15's in a proper box with proper port and switch to the same subs in a 12 inch model with same power then i think your output would be less. If you are switch from 15's without proper box and port to 12s with proper box and port on same power then i think you will gain. I do not know much about the aq15's so i will not comment on them but in either solution good luck. When your at the top everyone is coming for you, friends, family, haters and even those who don't know you.. my advice.. KILL EM ALL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although not technically correct his statement still holds water, if you wanna get loud on low wattage or a small budget it's all about cone area. What you said about having the space to build a proper enclosure is MOST important though, nothing in any build works as hard as a well-built box when it comes to SPL/SQ. I'm gonna hate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy95 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 From the motor force and power level increase, I would do the 12in bl's. Not considering many factors they have more potential.
