slamming ranger! Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Finally rebuilding my truck, the 4 12's are long gone. looking to do a single 15" dc audio level 4xl or level 5. untill I save up for a campershell and do a full walk through. My question is what will i gain from the level 5 over the 4xl? big price diffrence from the xl to the 5, but alot of people really like the level 4xl's from what im reading. tuff descion, any info on either let me know..thanks will be in 2000 ford ranger with blowthrough...

hdorre Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'd prefer an XL because of power handling and SQ. A lvl 5 would be my LAST resort because ive read that it sounds bad on music. How much power are you running. That's a huge factor.

iKidwell Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 if you're runnin anything under 2.5k rms go ahead and get the xl..they get real loud and sound good too Quote c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford302Redneck Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 XL ftw. I don't know why, but I just don't like the level 5. But I hear great things about the XL's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will take that if you know what you're doing. lol i know that..but we don't know how experienced op is and if he likes to play with the volume knob (gain knob)..just being makin sure he doesnt blow what he buys right off, because even at 2.5k rms a moderate amount of clipping wont kill it right off, but will give him the smell to know to stop Quote c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want a good sub for the time being, im tired of having no beat. so boring...I have read the bass reponse is pretty good on the xl.
