2 12" or 1 18"


Recommended Posts

I am trying to decide what woofer to get. I noticed that the brands that i'm looking at have the same power rating throughout their series of woofers. is it that the bigger woofer produces a larger wave with the larger cone area? It would seem that the bigger woofer would allow more power. I am going to be getting the AQ2200D and I want the right woofer for the right spl

i'd go 2 12's unless you got the proper air space for an 18.

i used to think a band pass was something you were around your neck or something.

A larger diameter woofer will naturally play lower. The smaller your cone area the higher it's FS will be. That being said- 2 12's done right can play lower than one 18. Now the question is upon selecting the woofs- will you have enough room to build a proper ported enclosure? Or would you rather build a sealed enclosure for SQ?

18. more cone area.

true, but with two 12"s you can run double the power. should beat the same 18"

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.
