drewb53 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have been wanting to upgrade my sub lately, but today i had the idea since money is not really permitting to me (no job right now) if i sold my current system and went with the audioque HDC312. Would the one subs off 1000rms in a ported box would be louder than the 2 kenwood 12's that i have now in a sealed box? I know the 2 12's have more cone area and all. please help me out lol thanks in advance Quote 2003 Chevy Blazerkenwood headunit4 ga. kicker wiringAQ1200D amp2 12" DC LVL 3'sStinger Volt MeterMy Build LogBlazer is no longer.

ArmoredPersonel48698 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Put the 1 12 in the right box, tune it right, put enough power through it, and it should be able to keep up with the two cheap kenwoods.

Berto Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Are you running your current system with the amp you're planning to use on the HDC312?

drewb53 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) thanks guys, i still have to try and talk to my parents about it considering i will have to sell all my old stuff to get money to pay it off... i have the money but like i said no job and i gotta pay for some stuff. but keep the suggestions coming.. and most likely on the one sub i would do sub and port foward. Good or no? Yes i do plan on it because i just bought a Aq1200D and it is at 2 ohms right now Edited October 19, 2009 by drewb53 Quote 2003 Chevy Blazerkenwood headunit4 ga. kicker wiringAQ1200D amp2 12" DC LVL 3'sStinger Volt MeterMy Build LogBlazer is no longer.

dannyp Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 it would deffo beat it on the lows first of all due to the ported box, and think it should be around the same volume if not louder with a single 12 ina good size box? what power you running?

drewb53 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 if i run my amp at 1 ohm according to the specs on Audioque it would be 510X1 @ 4 ohm, 870X1 @ 2 ohm, 1200X1 @1 ohm Quote 2003 Chevy Blazerkenwood headunit4 ga. kicker wiringAQ1200D amp2 12" DC LVL 3'sStinger Volt MeterMy Build LogBlazer is no longer.

ben29555 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 why not try to get a 15 if you can fit it to even out the cone area loss a bit Quote My Build Log loud bass songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
