AA Avalanche Or SI Mag??

[verg 10+ year member]

Well i have narrowed it down to these two subs and I need help deciding. I have 1000 watts to throw at it at either 2 ohms or 1 with an xtant x1001. It will go in a sealed box (still have to build it) and i am looking for the tightest punch. I listen mainly to rock with a little rap. I will be going with either a 12 or 15" but that is also up in the air. I just want nice hard punchy bass!!!

I posted a couple of days ago for suggestions and from what i have read these are the two subs that i like. So to make it easier if any of you guys that have heard both have a preference please help me.

I heard the mag ported and it was extremly accurate, ive never heard an ava tho, but the mag are jus awesome drivers

cant get an AVA right now anyways...they do have new stuff coming..VERY reasonably priced i might add.

ive heard plenty of good things about the mag though.

If you do find an Avalanche, I would definately recommend it for that punchy bass. I haven't heard the Mag, but the Avalanche is extremely accurate and is able to hit the lows as well as the punchier stuff.

since you dont really have a choice on eaither 12 or 15 with the avalanche because they currently are out of production - and if one comes up for sale (used - not sure about warranty btw) you are stuck with whatever is for sale.

a si mag though - you can get eaither or - and from what i read they get quite loud off minimal (ie 500w) power, and will love medium (ie 1200w) power. they are ONLY available in DUAL TWO OHM configurations from what i remember. so you are good to go with a dual 2 ohm sub for a 1ohm amp (1000w)

i would say the mag, simply because you are guaranteed a warranty, its a **** good loudspeaker, and it fits your bill from the rav reviews //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
