2 subs running @ 300w each would be louder...

Isn't it 3 db louder? Double the sub & power? Heard that somewhere..... on here I believe. Probably wrong. Hrmmm

Surface area would make it louder not to mention each on 300W with a total being 600W. Honestly if you are doing a true SQ setup I would go with one sub setup. Polo..

I dunno if he's asking about doubling the power. I think he's asking if it'd be louder with 1 sub @ 300watts vs. 2 subs @ 300watts.

2 subs will move twice the amount of air.

/thread.

yes its totals 600w but not on one sub..so they way you say ,its that if you have 2 subs off 300 each it will just as loud as 1 sub on 600?

I think it only adds like 3dB as well I remember my dad saying that when I was buying my 2 mags... he said you know buying 2 will only add this much. He explained it to me in detail and I dont remember any of it, obivously cuz I bought 2 lol... I imagine you could jus save the money from buying 2 and use it to buy a better 1... or buy my mag! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Two subs on a 300 rms will be louder at a lower volume level. One sub on 600rms will be louder at a higher volume level. Polo..
