1 Magnum d2 vs 2 respl 12hc's

what would you get 1 12 inch magnum d2 or 2 resonant engineering 12 inch hcs using a hifonics bx1500 amp

I'd go with 1 magnum or 1 RE HC becaues both of the subs are dual 2 ohm, so you can get a final 1 ohm load. Some people say that you can wire only one coil, but I just had a thread on it, and it didn't sound like a good idea.

That BX1500D is 1 ohm stable, so you would be able to wire only one of those subs (either the D2 or the HC) and achieve a 1 ohm load.

Exactly (not a good idea). If you wire up only one coil, the powerhandling gets cut in half.

for abou 25 a driver you can get dual 4 ohm coils...final load of 1 ohm

Really? I just ordered some HC's and I didn't know that. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Well u bought the 2,wire them in series,giving each 450w(2ohms load/total) .Build a ported box & go bumpin'

My amp puts out 1200 RMS at 1 ohm. SO I don't konw what it would do at 2 ohms. Plus since I thought I couldn't wire both up, I got 1 12 and 1 15 so I could try something different, see what I liked.

crap if i would have known that i would have got the dual 4ohm so i wouldnt have to buy another hifonics but i think im gonna buy another anyways and give each sub a lil over 1000 watts rms do yall think it will get killer loud?

w/ 1000 wrms a piece i'd hope so //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
