To wall or not to wall...

For comparison sake, let's just say two Soundqubed HDS315's on a 3k vs. four Soundqubed HDS215's on same 3k..... Or even a pair of AB XFL 15's on 3k and four HDS215's on same 3k. Just trying to see if upping to 4 smaller 15's will increase output.

and my 2 cents..

would i waist time walling with that gear? c pillar, 2 15's. Nope.

Edit- i like some ab xfls......

XFLs are definitely some bangin subs! :) My local "basshead click" has used all sizes of them and never been disappointed :) My subs take right around the same power as an XFL and perform similarly, just can't find them anymore :/ So other than walling the pair or trying the ports towards the kicks, it would be 4 different subs. Four HDS215's seem like they would slam pretty hard on 3k, what ya think? Also considered American Bass XD 15's...

I know someone on here that has 2 15s walled at b-pillar and shit gets down. It also can be completely removed and reverted back to stock.....dude has skills

Hahaha

Can't do b-pillar, need my back seats for now lol. Would the cabin area difference between the two make any impact?

XFLs are an underdog. For what they are and how much they cost.... they slay :good:

About XFLS our really underrated and good for the money went with them because a couple members on here recommended them to me I'm pushing 4 12" ab XFLS off a dc5k daily for almost 2 years and they take a beating. Would love eventually to do 4 more on a another dc 5k on a b pillar. So 8 12"s total on 2 dc 5ks.

But don't talk smack about this forum sometimes it takes time for people to respond. This is the best car audio forum I have ever been on and have learned a lot since I started on here. So just chill and wait not everyone is going to answer immediately.

XFL's are hands down the best sub available for under $200 IMO.... Seen the 15's take as much as 1750RMS daily, which is 75% more than rated :) My 3XL 15's take 1500 daily, seems any more than that and the coils start to get hot though :/ Still, not bad for a $150 sub!

I wasn't talking smack though, I am 32 years old and grew past that long ago. This forum is full of some of the most knowledgeable people I have met in car audio, some are polite and helpful, some are not. My point was that my question alone was not enough for 109/110 people that viewed it to chime in with anything, yet when I called out peoples passions, I got immediate responses. I get people are busy, I am too. Just wish people would be as eager to lend some advice as they are to defend themselves, that is all. I can do nearly anything myself and rarely need to ask for advice, mostly find myself giving advice to beginners. Just have VERY limited experience when it comes to walls and see a lot of walled rides here....

Ya I want to wall my truck eventually too when I get another daily driver. Wish there was a section on here dedicated to wall builds. But do like I do and go thru wall builds from beginning to end you will learn a lot on how to do it. And ask questions on how to do certain things. More less read read read as mush as you can. Also YouTube has some good videos on how to do it too.
