Which would be louder on two hifonics hercules? The strokers will be ported, while the pioneers will be sealed. Vehicle is a 98 grand cherokee. Mind you, these are the new all black stokers.

probably the strokers since they are ported, but why not port the pioneers, i think they would be louder ported on the same power

I probably won't have enough airspace in the back of a cherokee...

It looks as if my amp source will be a colossus. I wouldn't mind going with the pioneers but I don't know if they can get as low as 15's can. My current setup is two 15 L7s sealed and those get real low. Will the 4 12's get as low or lower?

Don't bother with the Pioneers unless you are going to port them. They just aren't designed for sealed boxes at all.

You would be downgrading going from l7s to the pioneers imo. Keep what you have, and make a better box or something.. Furthermore sealed boxes + l7s = no

I don't know about the strokers but the pioneers will shine ported and they will LOUD in the propper install.

I have heard the pioneers personally and they are some bad speakers, but the strokers are supposed to be bad too... If i had the room i would do the 4 premiers ported if i didnt have the room than i would do the strokers
