So, I currently have 1 18" AA SMD on an AQ 3500.1 and it's awesome, but just not getting it done for me anymore... I was looking into 2 18 sundown zv4 or 2 18 DC XL M2 18...problem I'm having is deciding on which would be louder... I have all the electrical I need besides replacing the factory battery under the hood (D3100 in the back already)... I have never heard the XL or the Zv4 so I am so torn... I was told today that 1 XL would be louder than the SMD I currently have... I could really use some insight on this! Thanks... And again, my goal is to be as loud as possible in a daily application... Not planning on running a lot of competitions, if any at all

Also I would be using the aq 3500.1 for now until I am able to get a DC 5k or 7.5k

nobody can say X will be louder than X. somebody can be louder with 500w than somebody with 2000w. literally only way to find out is to buy both woofers and test them.

You want louder

Double the power or double the cone area with an equal comparison sub

And why 2x18

Why not 4x 15

Why not 5k+ power

What your asking is will I get louder on same power, same elect,

Have you considered get a better single 18

Have you looked at emf

Or at adding more power to what u have

They will take 4.5-5k no issues

Fully understood... Is it crazy to say that a single 18 XL would be louder than a single 18 smd on the same amp in the same vehicle though?
