well im coming from 2 15" sundown nighshades in an ext cab s10. thinking of these choices. 4 level 3 10's ported, or sealed, or 3 level 3 15's sealed. what out of those would be the loudest/cleanest? any of those do a hair trick? powered by a sundown saz 3500D

Cone area:

Four 10" = 314.16

Three 15" = 530.14

but then its sealed vs ported.

Out of the 2 I'd suggest going with the 4 10s ported... But why change from the 2 15" Nightshades at all?? In the right enclosure it should be a good amount louder than either of these proposed setups.

oh, box had to be to big for me to drive comfy. so had to sell them. but im thinking the 4 10's ported, that way, i can always go sealed or ported. where the 15's could only be sealed. just wanted to know ppls opinions. also, will the 4 10's ported do a hair trick at all? (with window all the way down)

now i just have to choose level 3's upgraded, or level 4's? the lvl3's would do the job. and can always go sealed, but the specs of the level 4 seem better.

no i want to stick to 10's and they need to be able to do sealed, as in the future when i buy a new truck they will have to be able to accommodate that.
