[QUOTE="Jeremiah25, post: 5189908, member: 570469"] The copper coil AQ has china spiders. They aren't as good, but they are the best you can get in china. The aluminum coil AQ is now being built in house at DD, and has the same spiders as a DD....just like the original HD3 had. The AQ cone is stronger. Period. It is heavier than the DD cone though, and that's not really a good thing. If you upgrade to the DD composite cone, then it is stronger than the AQ cone and lighter both, but the standard paper DD cone is weaker. It's really not an issue on the DD sub, unless you have a rediculous amount of power. I've put over 4kw on the standard paper cones with no issues. Like everyone has said, both subs are awesome. They each have their strong points. The DD is a better sub all in all, but the margin is fairly small. IMO smaller than the price difference. [/QUOTE]
