2 12" American Bass XFL's vs 2 12" Obsidian Audio's

[dr3wzrdroid1]

Hey guys im doing my first build and I honestly dont know which subwoofer to choose. I know that they will sound different in certain applications but which would yall prefer. Im looking more into the XFL's after seeing videos with people of them and plus it has a 3in voice coil. But the Obsidian 12s are newer drivers and they cost less!

By the way this would be going into a 2001 Honda Accord EX, im just trying to get the most bang out my buck. And I plan to power them with an Audiopipe 1800 or Soundstream DTR 2200 in a 4.4 cube box with 1 6 inch aeroport. Let me know what y'all think!

If 4.4 ft^3 is before port displacement you will be fine with two Obsidian Audio 12's. However, if 4.4 ft^3 is after port and driver displacement and you plan on running 2200 watts to the pair of Obsidian 12's I suggest shrinking it down to 4.0 ft^3 after port and driver displacement.
