1-15" Arc Audio D2 or Dreadnaut or SSi

Looking to replace my dead 15 inch TDX. Ive found FI and they said that they can complete a recone, but now have fallen off the face of the earth. I dont want it to be an issue, and since deploying, im anxious to get back into the game so im considering the above three

Treo SSI (dual 4)

Dreadnaut (dual 2 ohm)

Arc ( Dual 2)

Im currently running an xtant 1001 and intend to keep it. the sub will be running in my 2.30 fiberglass enclosure..Yes sealed. I know the benefits, dont care. I like it lol.

So with the decreased power handling on the ssi it seems to be a good candidate.

Anyone have any experience with any of these? and recommendations out of the three? thanks.

i sent an email. he answered that he could repair it, he needed to see if he had another of the coils available. ive sent four or so emails in the following two weeks or so. offering to pay upfront.

Ive heard their a good company and would rather keep the sub setup that i built the enclosure for. With the time difference over here its hard to time a call to actually catch them in the office.

thanks ill send another email.

i wouldn't recommend the SSi for a sealed box, the rms rating on them is very conservative as well.
