Okay, I have been wondering when one has the advantage. Lets say, 1 18 on like 2.5k vs like 6 12's on 2k vs 2 15's on 5k

So which would get louder?

2 18s on 4k

6 12's on 2k

2 15's on 5k

power wins.

2 18's on 4k would probably be louder. This is if all setup's had box's that were built to spec according to woofer spec's.

2 18's = 508.68 cone area

6 12's = 678.24 cone area

2 15's = 353.25 cone area

The twelves would have the most cone area but the difference between the 12's and 18's would not amount to much even on the same power.. maybe 1/2db or less.

But 2 18's on 4k would be louder then 6 12's on 2k

its the amount of power each woofer gets. ive seen 2 18"s on 12k vs 6 18"s on 12k. the 2 18"s could get louder.

but of course it depends on the install. half the power and less cone area can win.

Just put 10 Level 5 10"s on 40 kajillion watts and blow your truck apart.

wtf is lolcats?

I'd def get a fat hooker if i had to resort to that kinda thing. I feel like they'd be grateful and work harder. Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers.

I was hoping for 150 :(.

I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt

Think outside the box and do like 6 12s on more power ..

Like 500watts - 1k per woofer :P

Then you would be all set :)

:D that's what i'm going to do :D anyone know a good daily box too 6 12s?
