Randall Simpson Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I just ordered a DC 1.2k and I am trying to decide between 2 Level 2 12s or 1 Level 3 15 with upgrades. This will be in a daily driver (2014 Scion TC). Like SQ but would like for it to take your breath away. The 12s will have more displacement so I am kinda leaning that direction. Quote

Its old n8 without the time or patience to hold fucking hands. I'm supposed to be doing school work but yet here i am making sure jr fuck fuck isn't trying to poke the other kids with a stick.
CJ18 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I would take a pair of Level 2 12s personally. More cone area will have more potential. http://www.droppinhzcaraudio.com/dc-audio-m2-level-12-p-241.html Quote
Randall Simpson Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Posted January 24, 2014 Thanks for the quick responses. I listen to pretty much everything. Going ported...what would you suggest for box design? Winisd: 3 cubes @ 34 hz looks promising and 3 cubes @ 30 hz looks fairly flat across the spectrum Quote
kryptonite Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 i have a lvl 4 12 on a 1.2k at 34 hz and she covers a decent range, not a basement dweller but she'll get low for some songs. I'd stick with 34 hz, just make sure you have a sufficient bracing in place and maybe a couple 45s in the corners to aid in air flow.

CJ18 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 1.5ft3 net per sub with 15in2 of port per ft3 should do nicely. Tuning will be up to you, 32-35hz is a good range to be in. Quote

Randall Simpson Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Posted January 24, 2014 Yeah I'm having my sound guy build this one for me. I've built boxes before but this guy is good and he is giving me a good price. The 15 and the 2 12's seem identical in winisd as far as frequency response. Can't wait to try out what DC has to offer. My systems have been mostly JL Amps and w1s w3s and a 12w7. Quote
775Tundra Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I had a lvl 4 15 in 3.5ft3 at 34ish on a 1.2k. I loved it.
