memphisbasshead Posted July 14, 2010 Report Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) Ok i was trying to decide on which sub i should get. I will be putting around 1200-1400 watts rms to the sub. If i get the 10 it will be in a 1.9 cubic ft box with 45 sq inches of port area tuned to 34 hz and if i get the 15 it will be in a 3.2 cubic ft box tuned to 34 hz with 82 sq in. of port area.

speedball1978 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Posted July 14, 2010 get either one, they'll both be great Quote
memphisbasshead Posted July 14, 2010 Author Report Posted July 14, 2010 get either one, they'll both be great but which one do you think will slap harder? (note the music i listen to is classic rock,hard rock,metal,and some rap.)

Robert8252 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Posted July 14, 2010 Why the 2 different size choices? And the bigger one with more cone area will almost always be louder on the same power. But if you go with the 15 I would try to get a little more airspace for it but it would work fine.

memphisBred Posted July 14, 2010 Report Posted July 14, 2010 Never really associated "slapping" with classic rock, haha. The power you have should be really nice on the level 4 15. Maybe if you have plans on upgrading power go with the XL. Quote SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow
cagle Posted July 14, 2010 Report Posted July 14, 2010 I recommend a L4 15 it will need 3 cubic ft.and 45" is fine on the port. More cone = more air movement = louder. I mainly play metal. If you have any questions you can call me at the shop. Quote
Joshslvl4xl Posted July 14, 2010 Report Posted July 14, 2010 the 15 will def be louder but the 10 will be great on the rock music Quote Ride-1996 Toyota 4Runner Limited Edition Head Unit-Alpine iXA-W404 Front Speakers-Memphis M-Class 6 1/2 Oversize Subs-2 DC Lvl 4xl 15's Amps-2 Sundown 3500d's Batteries-2 Batcap 2000's 240 amp Iraggi Alternator Wiring-Memphis 0 Gauge Kit Extra-Compustar Alarm/Remote Start/Keyless Entry
