ty_houston Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) I'm gonna assume you mean the difference between an spl sub and a sq sub...most sq subs sound better on music and have a lower fs(free air resonance), they require less power(usually)..some examples of sq subs would be an fi q, re mx, re xxx...alot of it comes down to install and tuning..I run massive dmx's witch are generally considered spl subs, but I have them in a ported box that's tuned low and they actually sound pretty good on music. They are what I would call a sql sub. A true spl sub ie: rd audio superheavy weight, re mt, handle massive amounts of power and normally require higher tuned enclosures( 60 plus hz ). They generally sound like shit on music(because of the higher tuning), and can take gobbs of power in short bursts(for burbing). This is just my opinion, like I said alot of it(90%) comes down to install and tuning.

I would consider those sql subs(sound quality level), they handle a good amount of power and the one's that I have heard sound good, real good. I would go to dc's forum or their website and see what they recommend for an enclosure. A sealed box sounds good, but they don't get as loud as ported boxes..if your after sq go for it(sealed).

Nope. I can't do hairtricks with 4kw on a DD9515, ported, in a tiny little hatch - I think you'll have a horrible time trying to do one with a sealed box in a trunk car. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!
