I've been researching Cadence for a month or so now because one of my potential team mates is swearing by it. The amps do rated. The subs seem decent. I'm just not that impressed. My DD's blow him away, BUT you pay a premium for DD.

Well I'm looking at a DD 2512 for 225 shipped, used of course, or a new Cadence ZRS12-800D4.

The amps do rated. And I keep hearing that one of thier sub lines is basically a rebadged HDC3. I haven't used any of their subs since the orange UltraDrive series, but those things wanged. Of course that was like 8 years ago. Lol. Bbut it's a solid company and they don't get the love that they should. I want to try some of those ZRS12's. They look prety **** beefy.

the zrs1000 series are basically the same sub as a dd3500

their daytona series are the same exact sub as hdc3 and 9500

the zrs800 is the dd2500 or aq 2.5 their all from same buildhouse.

those 2 arent the exact same sub, so how can the cadence be the same as 2 different subs?

HDC3 does not = DD9500.

Cadence = Copied Konaki/AQ, who copied DD.

Well, then, lets see all 3 subs put on the line.. Same enclosure, same wattage, same everything. See which one performs better.... DD has my vote : )
