[QUOTE="bass_lover1, post: 3569570, member: 555256"] IMO the Daytons are one of the most overlooked budget driver on the market. I've used the 12" HO and currently am running 2 10" HOs, and I enjoy them VERY much. I went from the 12 to a 15" XXX, and now I'm back to the HOs, of course it's my opinion that the HOs sound much nicer than the XXX, so take it with a grain of salt if you must, but I wouldn't of switched back to Dayton if I wasn't impressed with them [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] I'd honestly go with the two 12s ported, if I were you. Most people that have experience with them usually run them in a sealed application, but from my experiences they LOVE a ported environment. For the 12s I'd aim for about 1.2 per chamber tuned to 30hz, with about 12-15 sq inches of port per driver. If it means anything to you, the two HOs ported, are noticeably louder than the 15" xxx was, though it was sealed, but I definitely feel I gained in output by running the two 10s, also I'm using the same amp to power the Daytons as I was to power the XXX, so the only change is the drivers and enclosure, and I can say I'm very happy with my decision.
