Chamois Posted August 12, 2010 Report Posted August 12, 2010 I'm buying an AQ1200D and looking for a new setup .. I want a new sub and new speakers .. I wanna be able to play all ranges of frequency, but still have a badass system for having 1 15" subwoofer .. what subwoofer should I be looking for? Also I have a PCX350.2 amp that I can use for some nice Speakers or 8" or 10" subs for midbass 2006 Saab 9-3 2.0T
Chamois Posted August 12, 2010 Author Report Posted August 12, 2010 Setup Options 1) AQ1200D HDC315 Soundstream PCX350.2 for Comps 2 Kicker Comps for midbass cuz i have them already 2) AQ1200D 2 SDC2.512-D4 Which of these 2 Setups would be best? EDIT: Would it be possible to have a 15" In the center of a box with a port, and on the left and right side of it, have a 8" on each side for Mids? Ofcourse ill put each midbass sub in its own Sealed chamber, seperate from the 15" chamber 2006 Saab 9-3 2.0T
Robert8252 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Posted August 12, 2010 You would probably not even hear the 8" midbass being so close to the subwoofer. If you have the space the two SDCs will be louder because of more cone area. But if space is premium the HDC in a box with the right space would be a better choice. And tune it to around 38hz maybe for all around best performance. Mids and highs are all your personal taste and how you like your music to sound. I think RE components are pretty well liked by everybody and are easier on the ears then some. And honestly for what you'll be running a good set of components will make enough midbass for you. The 8" for midbass would be over kill IMO. 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff

I drive a 1992 Buick Century, massive trunk space :: So you think 2 15" SDCs would sound loudest over a single HDC3 15"? Either way im gonna be pushing 1200watts for now, but eventually i would wanna upgrade power when i get my new car, which means i would have to find a buyer for the subs :: think it would be easy enough? say 6 months from now? 2006 Saab 9-3 2.0T
Robert8252 Posted August 13, 2010 Report Posted August 13, 2010 If the price is right people always want to buy used stuff if in good shape and the price is right. Two 15s have more cone area than 1 15" which means moving more air. Generally the more cone area you have on the same power it will be louder since it's moving more air. And 2 15s need a big box. And it has to fit into the trunk through the opening. Just one estimate but every inch in difference matters when actually building it. But minimum ported you would need around a 38"x18"x20" box which is pretty massive in person to what you might think. 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff
