Destram Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 So, one has extensive knowledge of 4XLs (and probably every other model DC, I would assume) and the other has extensive knowledge of the 5s. I've seen the A Team recommend 4XLs time and time again, and Thor seems to love his 5s, like many others do. What are the pros and cons (if any) of the two? After seeing the numbers a 4XL can do, it makes me wonder if I should be buying those instead of the 5s.

J00bles Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 my opinion wasnt asked for, but it depends on your power more than anything. each have their own "sweet spot" Quote 8 DC Level 4 M2 15s2 DC Audio 5ks26^2 clamshell tuned to 30hz9 Kinetik 1400sMechman externally reg'd 340 S seriesin a 99 Jeep Cherokee Click to see J00bles' Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganberry Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 The level five is inferior to the xl up until you give it 6000rms, so if your running less power the xl will be better, the xl has smaller mags and one less spider than the level five too Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destram Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 my opinion wasnt asked for, but it depends on your power more than anything. each have their own "sweet spot" Sorry, any knowledgeable opinions are more than welcome. @Logan: Thanks. I wasn't planning on running 6k per 5, so perhaps the 4XLs would be better for me, but I don't know how much they're capable of handling daily, so I don't know how much to give them.

Destram Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Oh nice. I was thinking around 2500w per 4XL. You have level 5s, don't you? How are you liking them?

loganberry Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Yes I do, I love them but would no doubt be louder if I had xls, when I got my fives rusty had not came out with the xls yet Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destram Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Oh, gotcha. I guess I assumed the XLs came out first. Well, this makes me pretty happy. I can use the saved money on subs and buy some better amps. Sundown 2500Ds, perhaps?

loganberry Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) those would do great, one on each xl and the xl was created cause so many people could not power fives so bought fours with five coils and were blowin them, the xl is dc's golden child lol Edited March 5, 2010 by loganberry Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destram Posted March 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Now off to find prices on the amps or see if there's a better option out there! Thanks for the help, Logan.
