Any subs comparable to a 13w7? Want a new setup.

the music you listen to has NO SQ to speak of. ANY of the subs you listed will reproduce it just fine. HDC will sound just as good as a Q or BL if the box is right and the amp/EQ is tuned properly. I have HDC's and a Q, so I've done plenty of comparisons on every type of music.
I'd do 2 12" SDC2.5's off the 1200D in 4cubes @ 38Hz. That would be a KILLER budget set up and be louder then any of the single sub set ups you're considering.

interesting.... that actually sounds like a good idea

So wait... both powered by the aq1200 at 1 ohm each? Hmm... That would be a huge-*** setup though. Just HOW much louder would 2 sd2.5's be than 1 hdc3? I am trying to go light in the weight area.

double the cone area, same amount of power so APPROX 3db, but your talking 2 different subs with different sensitivites and a whole mess of differences, so anywhere from 1-5db im guessing

I'm settled on the 1200 + HDC312 in 2.5cubes between 33-35hz, fed with 1/0 cable. Wish me luck! Don't give me any more suggestions to confuse me, lol.

From what I heard, the W7 is louder than the HDC3 but the HDC3 are good if you on a budget. If you have the money then get the W7

you aint "heard" either sub in person I bet...

OP is trying to get a sub that is just as loud for less money

AQHDC3

Fi Q

SI MAG

I have a 13.5" W7, used less than a month. I'm trying to sell it locally...

Dont have the right amp for it as why, figure go with a different sub route. Bang of the buck!

Always wanted to try different subs!

I had a FI Q 15", its a very impressing sub!
