loburbon Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 well i've been running dd subs forever. i finally got to check out a dc lvl4xl 18 the other day. these are just my views, not bashing. just wonder if anybody else has actually had a chance to compair them. first the cone, it looks really similar to the dd cone. just doesnt look as beefy. but it looks like it might be lighter. so maybe a quicker responce. second the basket. looks almost identicle to the dd 6 spoke basket. third connections. dd has direct connections with 10g leads, the dc has the push terminals. dont like the way the look. i guess im spoiled by the direct connect. fourth the motors. im not sure, but the dc motor looks the same as the dd motor just a lil smaller. overall the look like a beefy sub. now when he gets em in lets see how they sound. from the look of these subs i may just have to try a set. they look like a solid built sub. i just hope nobody takes this thread the wrong way.

loburbon Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 sorry but pics on the net are different then seeing them in person. just look at all the chicks on myspace. they look hot til you see em in person. it was written to see if others have seen the 9500's and the lvlxl's, in person, not in pictures. in pictures it looks like the lvlxl is bigger.

AI James Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 baskets mean pretty much nothign in the performance of the 2, the cones are pretty much an industry standard on DC's and the outside look of a motor doesnt really tell us much about the characteristics of it. thats what Eric was elluding to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loburbon Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 yes i know all this. but nevermind, i was just giving my visual thoughts on the similarities and differences between the two. because i have been curious myself. but it seems like if you compare anything against a dc sub people get mad. thats why i said i want to try a set of these. they look like a great sub. but i guess i'll just join the masses and keep my opinions to myself and not ask anybody theres. because we all know that anyone with a different opinion or mind of there own is a bad thing.

loburbon Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 i know first hand the quality of dd, i have seen the top notch customer service of dc on here. i have seen the praise people give dc. so i was curious bout the two compared side by side. but i guess i wasnt supposed to do that. i'll still try a set of dc's but when i do i'll keep it to myself so i dont upset people Quote 2000 gmc yukon 4 sundown Zv3 15's 4 dd m2a's kenwood kdc-x994 2 batcap 4000's 1 batcap 2000 dual alts. 154@37hz and climbing http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3231683 http://www.myspace.com/torque150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*1LOWSUV* Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 i'll still try a set of dc's but when i do i'll keep it to myself so i dont upset people Look boo boo, nobody is getting upset but your topic made it seem like you had used both DC and DD and were going to tell us your opinion in "Hands on" testing.....I've used both speakers and I'm standing behind my DC Audio.... : Quote [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loburbon Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) yea ok. maybe the title should have been visual opinions. but i figured that since it said MY VIEWS, people would be smart enough to read what was wrote and not take it out of context. jesus man i didnt down dc, i stated my opinions on visual comparisions. so you have used both great, so you stand by your dc's even better. then explain why dc over dd. i want to know. thats why i started this thread. but people get pissy and dont want to give there opinions if they've used both of em. oh yea and notice the part that asks if anyone has had to chance to actually compare them, which means full out compare them, sound and everything Edited July 27, 2009 by loburbon Quote 2000 gmc yukon 4 sundown Zv3 15's 4 dd m2a's kenwood kdc-x994 2 batcap 4000's 1 batcap 2000 dual alts. 154@37hz and climbing http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3231683 http://www.myspace.com/torque150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
