Best 15 under $300

[muddin wolvy 10+ year member]

Im sure there are other threads like this, but I searched and didnt find any that were too similar to this one, soo....

I am getting a sundown 1200 amplifier to power one 15" sub. So it needs to be able to handle at least 1200 watt rms. I will be building a box tuned to specs, and around 4 cubes. What 15" sub will get the loudest, while still sounding pretty good with that amp?

Im considering...

DC lvl 4

FI BL (found a used one)

Maybe one of the AQ 15s

or maybe DD? (couldnt find prices on them)

others I've missed

Why not a pair of Sundown SA-12s?

personally i think your current choices are pretty much on spot. I'd throw in the sundown Z15

I got AA Chaos 15s for sale. $180 + shipping each. That amp would be perfect for it.

I want a 15 that can get low. Am I wrong in assuming a 15 will hit the low notes better than a couple 12s? Somewhat new at this

yes, very wrong

It all depends on the FS of the driver in question. Size does not matter. And x2 on the AQ HDC15

I've got a tc 3hp neo that's just what you looking for 1200-1500 and it will murder the lows

 

[muddin wolvy 10+ year member]

Ok well let me rephrase my question somewhat... 1 15 or 2 12s that can get low and loud all while staying under 300 shipped. Used or new

Thanks for all the help and suggestions btw

doesn't depend on that either... thats just the free air resonance, its all of the parameters of a subwoofer
