I'm on the fence about DC myself. I hear their suspensions are super soft and don't hold up well. Could be bad information. I've never personally heard a Fi sub. The HDC3 is stout and anything Sundown should be solid.

How much do you have to spend and how much space/power do you have?

I personally like most of FIs stuff. The BL has some sick output for the money. Built better than the aq as well..

I honestly don't think that's true. Pretty much all the spiders on the market are either Nomex or poly cotton impregnated.

They have several types of spipers linear progressive soft hard etc. From the parameters they aren't soft

What is the reason why DC recommends 25% smaller enclosures than just about every other manufacturer? Im genuinely curious.

Having used DC for a few years.

The soft parts are junk. Put them in a large box and they fall apart

I would really like an hdc310 but they dont seem so helpful with the shipping to me.
