justinqualls1 Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 I am thinking about updating my system from what i currently have. I currently have a optidrive 15 with the lanzar optidrive 1400d amp. I was at one of my local audio shops and they had a soundstream xxx-15 and i was wondering what everyones opinion was on this sub because it looks like it would be a beast but looks arent everything anyway any help would be appreciated.

Team_DC-Derrick Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 (edited) just a quick overview from google shows its RMS at 8500 watts... thats insane! I personally think you would be happy with it, but you will probably need a better amp to push it! keep us updated if you decide to get it. Pics plz ! ***edit, d1 or d2? because you will probably need d2 to run it with your amp...

AI James Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 they will fry on 8500 daily 3k-4k maybe but 8500 nah ive seen them done loud subs not the greatest sounding but real loud Quote
justinqualls1 Posted January 14, 2009 Author Report Posted January 14, 2009 I would get a different amp also. I just wasnt sure how this compares really to some like the fi btl or level 5 from dc sounds. Im just not sure what i want to do. Im pretty happy with the way my one optidrive sounds i thought about doing two or just changing to something different all together. Quote
Namosh Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Shit, I'd love to have a few of them. They are bad ass. I wouldn't be scared to give them 8500 either. ***edit, d1 or d2? because you will probably need d2 to run it with your amp... I'm pretty sure they are quad 1. Quote My Ram Quad Cab Blow-through
Boon Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 I've seen a XXX-15 bake on a single XXX6500 daily and those things sure don't make huge power on 12v systems. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!

DeepHittersMagazine Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 I have 6 SSXXX 15" with only 2500W on each currently and they are the best subs til date that I have heard on the low notes. Im tuned @ 30hz and can only tell you about the low freq. I don't know how they sound at higher freq... Quote DeepHitters Website DeepHitters Facebook DeepHitters Youtube SuperBeast Youtube
fischy fisch Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 I've seen a XXX-15 bake on a single XXX6500 daily and those things sure don't make huge power on 12v systems. the opperation voltage on the amp is also 16v so its got major low volatge but ive listen to a few and if you can feed em get Quote lol. but i haven't and i don't plan on it. plus i'd probably miss and hit her belly button or her ear or something. lol.
Boon Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 the opperation voltage on the amp is also 16v so its got major low volatge but ive listen to a few and if you can feed em get It's well known that they take 16v to make good power. What I'm saying is that it was on 12v, so it was making fuck all power, and it still blew the sub. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!
