sodfamily Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I have changed my mind and will be be going with the DC Level4's instead of the Pioneer Champion Series Pro's. I think this is a smart upgrade. I will either be going with 2 Lvl4 12's with a SAE-1000d on each or 1 15 level 4xl and strap the two SAE-1000d's (book says 1800watts strapped). What do you guys thing, will there be much of a change from one to the other. My goal is to get the most out of the amps. Of course what ever way I go the box will be ported. Again thanks for the info Rusty.

I would personally go with the two 12"s over the single 15" just my opinion ha Quote '98 Dodge Durango 5.9L 5% front windows, 2.5% on all backs Alpine CDA-9883 Kicker ZX350.4 Kicker KS650's in all doors Kicker 1/0 hyperflex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMS15 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I would personally go with the two 12"s over the single 15" just my opinion ha this is 100% true, i just got rid of my 1 big 15 for two smaller 12's and its WAYYYY louder plus for daily the 2 subs=more coil =more cooling plus i hear the XL's love power, i talked to a dealer he said they take 2.5-3kw no problem if done right so i think regular lvl 4's will be great for you Quote 1 15" LMS Ultra<-Sold 2 12" Audiopulse Axis Quad Coils 2 18" RD Audio Alpha V2's<--For Sale or Trade American Bass VFL 700.1 (alot of power at any ohm) American Bass VFL 200.1 (3.8k rms @ .5 ohm) 2.1 cubes each at 32 Hz 125 sq ft RAAMaudio BXT, 5 Yards Ensolite 50ft 1/0 Knu Flex wire 4 Infinity 6.5" Temp 170x2@2 ohm Sony amp 200 Amp EA Alt 3 Exide Orbital's Youtube Vids....http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=gavinriley&view=videos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sodfamily Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 cant you just do 2 12" lvl 4 XLs? i mean, i dont know how far off they are in price but i doubt its that much... Well the level 4 12's have a rms of 1000watts, where the level 4 xl's have a rms of 1500. My amps are only 1000 watts each, so I would assume I would want a sub that is around that wattage and not above it. If my amp dose not put out the RMS of the sub it would not make sense to go that route correct? I am asking this because I am not sure here. I don't want to get subs that my amps will not push.

The level 4s take a helluva lot of power. The 2 sae 1000ds would push one XL. As a DD setup I too would go with 2 12s Quote AlphaDamp Sound Deadening CDL Mat - The best Vibration Damper Ever!

Team_DC-Derrick Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 you can always upgrade amps later in the game with the XLs, but it will be more pricey to upgrade subs later in the future *i have both 2 lvl 4 15s with lvl 5 coils and 2 lvl 4XL 15s, and the XLs are just crazy louder* i just say get better, break them in with 1000 rms then upgrade in the future !
