brahma or ed k

[KAMAK 10+ year member]

I either want 2 brahmas with 1250 w running to each, in an appropriate box. Or 4 ED K's with 350 w to each in an apropriatly sized box. Which would be louder? I know this is an crazy qustion, but i thought i would ask.

What size are the brahmas, what size are the edk's you plan on getting?

Oh my bad. They are both gonna be 12's.

there are speculations on either side that the same power to more subs is not louder or it is.....i personally think cone area plays a huge role and you may get more out of the edk's....but then again your not even comparing the same subs....personally i would go with the brahmas, much better all around sound quality and loudness....the edk's have a shallower range as well.

I thought the k's haven't been shipped out yet. You've probably looked at their stat sheet.

You look like a JL man to me. I see your stuff listed below. My cousin raves over their equipment. I honestly don't think he knows much about car audio, but he did come in 3rd I believe in some contest. His car was extremely loud though. Sorry getting off topic.

Just b/c they have JL doesn't mean they don't know jack about car audio. If i had the money a 13w7 would be sitting in my car as of now.

I thnk the 2 brahmas would be alot louder in a 8 ft^3 ported box. shared chamber ported to like 35 hz.

why dont you look at the a's?

i know its all speculation, but wouldnt an a15 be as loud as a brahma 15, going by xmax and sd?

looked at the spec sheets, for the brahma i came out with 2.046248.

for the eda, i came out with 2.34546

am i wrong?

whats on paper and what happens IRL are 2 different things though...

I think that actully may have less relevence than this post where I am asking you why the hell you make that post?

anyways....without having heard the new ks, i still vote for brahma

I dont want a 15 incher. I want two or 4 12's. it would be louder.

 

[Natheo 10+ year member]

im saying that the a series appears to be nearly as good as the brahmas

they are a bit cheaper. maybe better sq. doubt that they are completely louder.

well u can get 3 k's for the price of one brahma
