loganuf Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Posted February 28, 2009 well id look into a pair of DC's. do u have any particular ones in mind?I was looking at the RE sx's, Fi Bl's, AA havocs, and DC lvl 4's....all of them are around the right price range and i think decent as far as matching up with my amp, but which one do u think i should go with? 2000 Eddie Bauer Expedition: Alpine CDA 9883 2x 18" DC lvl 4 D2 10.7 cu ft box 33hz knu 1/0 wire amp: Kicker ZX2500.1 Kinetik

loganuf Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Posted February 28, 2009 Can your 12's get down low? If you like your low lows I'd go 18 but I like the 4 12'sthey get pretty low.....but bc i have have the box tuned so low they dont pick up the highs great either like a 12 normally can, which is why i was thinkin well if im going for lows anyway i might as well go with the 18's 2000 Eddie Bauer Expedition: Alpine CDA 9883 2x 18" DC lvl 4 D2 10.7 cu ft box 33hz knu 1/0 wire amp: Kicker ZX2500.1 Kinetik
cichlidfort Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 more cone area Fail...the 12's are L7's and they have a square shape which actually gives them more cone area. But RE, FI, DC or AA would have better quality cone over the L7. 18's FTW. 2008 Chevy Impala (undercover cop style) Setup in the makings
07sOnAtA sp.ed Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 def do the 18's... jut make sure you have enuff room, and make a good box. the box aka install is the most important part CURRENTLY UNDER RE-CONSTRUCTION 2008 Hyundai Sonata Team T3 Audio Team Deadly Hertz Team SMD (Street Motivated Devastation)
