dcon or CV vmax12

they are both in the same price range. I like the higher power handling on the Vega. but im concerned about it hitting the lows.

Any quality sub woofer will 'hit the low's'. What are your goals and power and space etc.?

 

Sure, I would love it if you leaned towards the Dcon, but if it is not the best choice for your needs.....

well i have an aq1200d for power but im not necessarily looking to utilize the full power of the amp. 875 rms @ 2 ohm is plenty . and space wise i have a 95 civic coupe with a pretty small trunk lol. goals are musical sq but also get kinda loud lol

I think the Obsidian is a very good bet here. Cheap and known to get down and will probably take the power u have better than the DCON. As for the VMAX, CV makes some decent stuff so I think I'd trust it to take the power as well. (I always overpowered everything anyway)

Still gotta say I would lean towards the Obsidian of the two though with the CV at a close second for the power you're running. DCONs are underrated but I don't think by that much...
