1 15" or 2 12"??? 300 bucks

[brandontw 10+ year member]

My 2-12"hx2's are starting to go down hill, they may or may not be kinda blown, but they sqeak, flob, and generaly sound bad, so im shopping fo new sub options. i only have about 4 cubes of space max, so i was considering one 15, or even an 18 if i could find a good one. or going with 2 12's again. i have a bx1500d to power whatever i get, so i need to be able to wire down to 1 ohm so i can get my "1500" out of it. i really cant spend more than 300 bucks.

here are some 15's i was looking at

would 1 of those 15's or 18's be as loud as 2 12's for that price? im into SQL i guess. im also very interested in adire, RE, ID, DD, and all that, but just dont know the prices, or where to buy them... how much would a 15" xxx set me back?

I would say spend an extra 30 bucks and buy a pair of IA LI's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Well worth the extra money in my mind...

so how is it only 30 extra bucks if the LI 12's are 250 apeice? ouch, i cant do 500 bucks!

 

[req 5,000+ posts]

thats MSRP. they are significantly cheaper than that from LI

GIVE THEM A CALL. they will even help you build a box for them.

i say the LI's

they will sound the best *imo* out of those woofers.

and those have an rms rating of 5000 and quad 1.5 voice coils, i dont even know how to wire that, to oneish ohms, and i only have 1500 rms, thats not the choice for me i dont think.

 

[brandontw 10+ year member]

oh i looked in the incriminator site and it said 249, i guess ill call them, will they really take 100 off the msrp though?

 

[brandontw 10+ year member]

i also just found the planet audio 18" fu im leaning heavily towards that, its only like 150$

 

[kickerlivinloud 10+ year member]

LI 12's are $165 shipped to your door. So, 2 would be $330 shipped //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
