well the level 5 subs you have now will handle more power than the DD 95. The SS woofer wasnt meant for sound quality, it has a very stiff suspension which raises the Fs of the woofer considerably which makes it less suitable for "good" sounding bass.

Both subs will get stupid loud. The SS woofer will handle more power, the DD will sound better. I iwould keep what you have and maybe do a rebuild, no need to spend money if it wont be a real upgrade

1997 Astro

front:6 sets of T3 componets

I think the ss wld be an upgrade over the dc's just because of power handling. Just my .02

System tear out has begun...Out with the old

I think of it as the virgin losing the virginity technique

not just jumping in to it, and pounding away, but going at it slowly over time, to get to that full extreme

from what im told both these woofers are a good bit better than the level 5's, and im not saying NO to dc, thats all ive ever ran, im saying there is some pricing issues and im not willing to spend more money i dont have on something i had before, im thinking that is the fs is going to be raised due to soft suspension wouldnt that be better for a 38hz tuned wall?

Change your box before you get new subs.

All three of these subs are neglectable in LOUDNESS ability difference.

It's all in your box, and supplying clean, insame amounts of power.

dd ftw the only thing ill add is its kinda un fair when the dd is 1500/6000 rms/max and the soundstream is like15rms or something like that you could go for the dd z series :spiteful:

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.

but i just wondered something about how a sub acually works, i mean what's the diff in a 1000w sub moveing the same as a 10,000w sub affect loudness? ive never figured it out really, i thought loudness had to do with excursion n how well they disapate heat, ive just always wondered how all this affected one another

and is that the new xxx? the ones pete used had a higher roll surround, and why not get this to power 2 of the xxx's?
