Haha, not a good question

Not really anyone has had the db500 yet, and thats a subjecive question anyways

For my money I'd get the db500 though, just to try something different

CT

I'd go with him to be honest, the DB-500 is fresh out on the block, however a lot of people are jumping on it because its so cheap. Can't beat 100 bucks for a sub

Just a heads up db-500s arent even out yet, so my guess is very few people actually know.

Yea sorry for the shitty post I had to hurry before the bell rang for 2nd period..

It's either 2 10" Type R's or 2 10" DB-500's going in a single cab Ranger with about .7cu for each sub to work with..

Is there no way to tell by looking at the specs which one will get louder?

Lets keep a few things about TC into consideration.....None of their drivers are built for SPL... If you are looking for the best bang for you buck, sound good and get loud. Then the db-500's are a good choice.

edit. im tired lol

what i meant to say was with the db-500's each woofer will see 250 watts at 4ohm since its an a/b amp. i dont know if that amp will handle a 2 ohm mono load so i wouldnt push it. if you really wanna see all the potential in that amp i would get the dual 4 ohm r's and run them at 4 ohm so each would see 500 watts each

So the 4hp is a sq sub?

Its an SQL sub. If you dont believe me. Call TC ask for Thilo and let the owner tell u.
