2 HDC3 12's vs 3 SDC2.5 10's

it would be the same really. because your power is staying the same. as long as you have enough coils to efficiently distribute the power to the set up will be just as loud with 3 10's or 50 10's. It's all power dependant.

ok number one for the math wizzes the size of the subwoofer and effective piston area are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS, you can't just go 10 and 12 and break is down. however the audioque website LISTS THE SD so you can use that...

12 = 53m M2 so x 2, 106

10 = 33m M2 so x 3, 99

12's have more surface area...

has anyone considered the fact that with 3 dual 4 ohm subs you can't wire to 1ohm...? so your looking at 2.66 ohm or .66ohm...

at 2.66ohm the sdc's aren't going to get anywhere neer what they need, and i don't know if the crunch will run at .66ohm

the hdc's have more surface area, and will take 2k all day long

get the hdc's

Now didnt I tell you that you had to much power on them in another thread? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
Anyways, get 2 hdc 12s, and get the aluminum coils. fck china softparts...

btw, what part of knoxville do you live in?

I live in Karns, and there is no way i could afford to get the aluminum coil ones, WAYYY too much dough for me, and shouldnt i see a significant gain in SPL going from the SDC2.5's to the HDC3's? Considering the cost?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

he didnt have to much power, he played a whole clipped song and fried the coil on one. i told him jeezy songs are turned up and he doesnt listen. its him not the equipment. i could run that amp and those subs all day and have when im in the car.....

i told him just to do the hdc3's so maybe he wont blow **** up.
