15" SQ recomendations

[justsayk 10+ year member]

I have two 15"s right now and I have grown out of my basshead phase. I want something that will have better low end extension than my PG's, and I want to go with a single woofer. Whatever I get it will be in a sealed box. I want to go all out SQ. Not worried about SPL. I'd like to keep it to 200 or less, but if spending an extra $50-$100 will get me better SQ, I can save up. I have 1500 watts (probably overrated) at 1 ohm, 1000 watts at 2 ohms. I like to keep the gains set conservatively, and I think headroom is good. What woofers would fit this application?

I'm saying it's too loud. Not that it sounds bad. But I also want something with better low end. This has nothing to do with my gain setting.

If you want sq get a 15 type X and that visonik amp is definitely not overrated

Its rated at 17v, therefore you will not be able to get its rated power without upgrade your electrical MAJORLY.... Wont get anywhere near what it says.

Find a used Avalanche or buy an Rlp. They are in your range and sound great sealed. I just put my old one in my girlfriends car in 2.2 cu. ft. and its seeing 1000 watts(gains pretty conservative) and it sounds great

I don't think the v900xd is one of the ones rated at 17v. I'm pretty sure it says 14.4 volts in my manual. But either way, I'm not getting 14.4v, and I haven't done anything to my charging system. My lights dim pretty bad when its at full tilt, so realistically I am probably not even getting 1000 watts. What about an ID Q?

RE SE subs are pretty nice nott too badly priced. also Diamond audio, and if u crazy get a used MAG.
