gbsx Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 The question is should I order 2 Level 3 15's? or 1 Level 4 18? I know 2 15's would have more cone area but I need some other opinions. I can build literally any box that needs to be built for them. I have an entire wood shop at my disposal. I'll be powering them with a Soundstream Stealth 1200.D at 1 ohm so around 1200 watts rms. Opinions would be great! - GBS 1989 E30 325i BMW (New Car) iPad 64GB 3G (COMING SOON!) 1 12" DC LEVEL 4 w/LEVEL 5 Soft Parts Ported box - 1.5 Cubes tuned to 33hz Sound Stream STL1.1200D 4 Gauge Stinger Wire (+ & -) 8 Gauge Amp to Sub Stinger Wire Tsunami Mini ANL 130 Amp Fuse AUDIO WRAP SUPPORTER!

jizazz12 Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 i am currently running two lvl4 15's with lvl 5 coils, and my buddy is running to lvl3 15's, personly if it were me i would do the two 15's.i think they would be a good match for the power your running plus as you said that would give you more cone area i also think the one 18 would work but that lvl4 18 would want more power to make it come alive. 2007 Chevy Impala LS 1 Crescendo 3KWP 1Crescendo C1000/4 2 DC lvl 4 15's with lvl5 dual .7 coils 1Audio Control Matrix 1 Pioneer P880PRS 1 300 amp Iraggi alt All power runs done with Knu flex 0/1 guage 1 optima yellow top under the hood 1 XS 5100 and two Deka's in the trunk 4 Crescendo MP-8 mid bass drivers 2 DB Drive p5 5 D Pro Audio tweeters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loudcivic Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 For just having 1200watts i'd go with the 1 18". do you even know what your talking about??? here maybe i should direct you to the site so you can look at the specs. http://www.dcsoundlab.com/specs.html look at the rms for the level 3's there 600 rms a piece which would work out great with what amp he has. yes the level 4 says 1000 rms but really you can throw 1500-2k rms at it with no issues. as was said in another post the level 4 would need more power to get it going. were not talking bout jl or rf here. 2015 silverado crew cab nothing atm but soon...

gbsx Posted August 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 what vehicle are they going in? i would get the 2 dc audio level 3 15's they are kick ass some kick ass 15's if you want i can design you a box for free for the 2 dc audio level 3 15's I'd love a box design if your willing to. It's going in a 1986 BMW 325. I'm leaning toward the 2 15's. In the future when I have money I'm going to just wall it off behind the B pillar . If I can fit them in my trunk that would be awesome!
