1x SQ HDS3 12" 2R DVC vs 2x Kicker CVR 07CVR124

Between an SQ HDS1222 and 2x Kicker 07cvr124 which will get louder and sound cleaner assuming appropriate enclosure designed? Either would be driven by a Cadence A7HC @ 1 Ohm.

Cone area is king. There's no replacement for displacement.

soundqubed can hit deeper sub 28hz notes easier but the two kickers will be louder.

What's ideal box size and tuning on the cvrs?

Are you going for peak spl or daily with a wide frequency range? What kind of music do you listen to and what vehicle?

What is an HDS1222? You mean HDS2 12"?

This would be installed in a '98 Mercury Mountaineer. Daily driver in winter. I mostly listen to rock/metal. Space is not issue really.

I was thinking of the XFL 1222. This is an HDS3 12" 2ohm dvc.

The HDS3 and XFL would be underpowered on that amp if it does 1200rms before rise. The two CVRs would definitely be louder.

You could get two Sundown LCS B stock 12s for $72 each.

3.6-4.0cf with a 6 inch aeroport tuned to 36-42hz

4@40 looks like the sweet spot

Thanks. I typically just use a slot port. Assuming that's okay. Not sure if you were simulating that or just glanced at kicker's specs.

Only time I use a slot is for a low volume low tuned box where you need a long ass port and an aero isn't practical.

Overall aeroports are more efficient and easier to design and build. Up to you if you want to use a slot port. If you choose a slot then use 14-16 sq inches of port area per cubic foot of volume which is 56-64sq in of port area for 4cf@40hz.
