Captain Stupid Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I'd go with a sp4 if you have the money. I LOL at this. The SP4 is the cheapest sub that's been mentioned in this thread. Not knocking it, just saying we are discussing subs that mostly cost over $1000 each and some closer to $2000 each. 2006 Cadillac Escalade 2/3 drop on 28" wheels Two RE SX 18" subs RF T2500-1bdCP amp, 3531watts on birthsheet Custom carbon fiber sub box EVERYTHING else is stock, for now 149.4 @ 37hz, Termlab, dash, open window on two AQ3 18s all stock electrical, wired to .25 ohm on a RF T2500 148.8 @ 36hz, Termlab, dash, open window on one AQ3 18 all stock electrical, wired to .5 ohm on a RF T2500 147.8 @ 38hz, Termlab, legal, sealed on two RE SX 18s 146.4 @ 36hz, Termlab, legal, sealed on one RE SX 18 Link to my hack-built, stupid, carbon fiber wasting project.... http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/149946-carbon-fiber-box-update-1494db-37hz-on-tl/ http://gifsoup.com/NDM3MTc1MQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ18 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Looks very similar to me. XSv2 has a triple stacked motor vs a double stack on the sp4 and the sp4 uses a spider pack with spacers where the XSv2 does not. Both 4" coil subs built by the same company, but built for different purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for shits and grins I might buy a pair of each just to see who's will be the loudest. Now THAT would be an interesting head-to-head. As far as playing under tuning goes, RF sets the SSF at 28 and I'll just leave it turned on. 2006 Cadillac Escalade 2/3 drop on 28" wheels Two RE SX 18" subs RF T2500-1bdCP amp, 3531watts on birthsheet Custom carbon fiber sub box EVERYTHING else is stock, for now 149.4 @ 37hz, Termlab, dash, open window on two AQ3 18s all stock electrical, wired to .25 ohm on a RF T2500 148.8 @ 36hz, Termlab, dash, open window on one AQ3 18 all stock electrical, wired to .5 ohm on a RF T2500 147.8 @ 38hz, Termlab, legal, sealed on two RE SX 18s 146.4 @ 36hz, Termlab, legal, sealed on one RE SX 18 Link to my hack-built, stupid, carbon fiber wasting project.... http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/149946-carbon-fiber-box-update-1494db-37hz-on-tl/ http://gifsoup.com/NDM3MTc1MQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's a great point. I don't plan to drive around with these babies at full tilt. Honestly, I'll probably have the gain turned down nearly all the way for regular daily driving. I just want it capable to handle full tilt when and where I want it to. And maybe....just maybe....I'll double my power, strap amps and burp 12k to each sub in competition. I drive around right now with my stuff at full tilt at around 148-ish SPL and it's hard to see on certain bass notes, especially the long ones. LOL. And that's just 3000 watts, give or take. 2006 Cadillac Escalade 2/3 drop on 28" wheels Two RE SX 18" subs RF T2500-1bdCP amp, 3531watts on birthsheet Custom carbon fiber sub box EVERYTHING else is stock, for now 149.4 @ 37hz, Termlab, dash, open window on two AQ3 18s all stock electrical, wired to .25 ohm on a RF T2500 148.8 @ 36hz, Termlab, dash, open window on one AQ3 18 all stock electrical, wired to .5 ohm on a RF T2500 147.8 @ 38hz, Termlab, legal, sealed on two RE SX 18s 146.4 @ 36hz, Termlab, legal, sealed on one RE SX 18 Link to my hack-built, stupid, carbon fiber wasting project.... http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/149946-carbon-fiber-box-update-1494db-37hz-on-tl/ http://gifsoup.com/NDM3MTc1MQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get them new or used? One thing that leads me to say the SP4 and XSv2 are brother and sister is that I heard that Crossfire was getting upset that they were not able to get recones and parts for their subs because they were being used to build another sub as well(possibly the sp4).
