tequila Posted November 21, 2008 Report Posted November 21, 2008 Hi guys So now ive got a pioneer premier ts-w3001 subwoofer, rated at 1000 wrms. Im giving it 1000 watts from a powerbass xa1500d. Ive recently found a Soundstream Tarantula T4-15 (15" woofer rated at 1000wrms) used for $150. Im wondering if i upgrade to this 15" tarantula, if i'll see a noticable change in SPL. I dont care for sound quality, i just wanna wang! Get really down really low and hard. I know there'll be more cone area with the 15", but is it noticably different? The sub will get the same amount of power. Thanks '99 Civic hatch 18" AA Chaos - 7cuft @ 34hz - 114sq in. port Mac Audio Fearless ~ 1000wrms @ 2 Ohms Videos: Youtube
