dirtboi22 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 So as some of you guys know i have been going to do a blow through on my sonoma, I have been waiting because of funding... (almost there!! lol). But just recently was i told by like 4 guys at an audio shop that i should do 12's instead of 15's? they said 12's would just sound better and that putting 15's in would just be stupid... I would like to put the 15's in because i would think that it would be louder... but if it would sound like crap whats the point... i guess im asking have you guys seen a blowthrough with 15's and it sound good?

kingsuv Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Any Sub size will be fine. The bigger the drivers the more space typically they will need. My wife's 18's get down in her BT Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killallblue Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 I don't like advice from local shops they try to get u to buy some crappy ass subs for some crazy ass price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirill007 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 :rofl: 15's sound as good as 12's no difference in SQ in different sizes. All a 10 inch sub sounds the same as a 18. Only thing that changes is loudness.(bigger is most of the time louder.) Quote Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.

JMZNeal Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 if the bed is deep enough to stand them straight up and have a cover over the bed then do 15's my ranger is only deep enough for 12's. That maybe why they said that. Sonoma's are little trucks.
