badazz 10s?

[Fi-brations 10+ year member]

I'll be going to college at the end of the summer, and I'll need to downsize from my 18", I was thinking of one 10 or maybe 2 8s. I'll probably be running around 1500w for the substage. I've never really understood how large of a role efficiency of a woofer plays and which ones are more so than others. I also like some authority in the below 30hz region, i dont know if have a 10 or 8s will make that just a dream. I may just try to get Corey to build me one @SPLaudio
I was thinking though maybe looking into a dc xl, lvl 5, Sundown zv4, dd 9500, im not sure though, what do ya'll think? Musicality plays a role as well, sql is my nature.
If anybody wants a still stiff IA flatlyne 18" let me know

Going from an 18, to a single 10, or a pair of 8s, is going to be a BIG Change for you..Im not sure that youd be happy with either,as I went from an 18 to 2-10s,and now back to 4- 10s.i was never satisfied with a single 10/12, or even a pair of tens..I couldnt imagine going with a pair of 8s.If anything, i think you would be happy with a pair of 12s/1000 rms 12s to be honest.Id take a look at some 12s,such as the American Bass 12s that are getting some excellent reviews at this time.Just my opinion, and from my own experience.dealt with

Ya I don't want to upgrade the alt., and my batt doesn't fit under my hood, I might be able to run 2000 for sub(s)

Yep a single XFL 12" can get pretty nasty and sound amazing in 2.5cf with abundant port area......I have a local setup we done in a trunk car and it is impressive with only 1k on it...........A single I-Con would be a great choice as well.....

Well you already had Q's

Well you already had Q's

ya i want to try something different, and i dont feel like an xfl is what im looking for. Right now my 18 on about 800w in my explorer is almost as loud as my fi q with spl audio recone on the dd m3 in my old bmw's trunk

I think if i get a monster 10 and put it on 2k or so will be good. I'm trying to save some space, and a normal box for a 12, 2.5-3cubes, might be too big. My amps arent exactly small either haha, an xtant 4180c and alpine mrv1507 are not exactly known for their smaller size, but i think i may have a place to put them.

Ive never run a 10, can a single 10 get loud? get low?

A single 12 in approx 2.0 cu ft @32-36htz like this should get down pretty nicely with the amps you are running..I havent heard these yet, but surely got to be able to get down better than the xfl series, maybe?

I'd go with a DC myself since they like smaller boxes
