Decided for my next upgrade I'm going for 2 12's, can't decide between these two. I'm slightly leaning towards the DD's because I like my current DD's and I know I'll get quality if I go with them, but the AQ's look nice as well. The carbon fiber cone is quite the sex.

 
DD & AQ are sister companies, if that answers any of your questions.

think of AQ as Ford and DD as Lincoln. They'll both be good; the DDs would be nicer, but the AQs would be more affordable.

 
I have heard both get the dd's
i figured DD's would win but with the higher price tag that's sort of expected lol. did they excel in a certain category, or are they just overall better?

makes sense. I think the carbon fiber on the AQ is what attracts a lot of people lol.

 
I doubt I'll be buying them new, I was going to go for used on here. There's a DD dealer that lives about an hour away from me though, I could ask him.

So no, I don't know the MSRP lol. I'm not looking to buy now anyways. This is all for future knowledge //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
why DD over AQ? what was your expierence with the AQ?

do you know the price of the 1512 op?
They're probably up there with SA-12s, so count on 200-240

The 3500 series is like 475, but that was for an 18

So roughly

1500 - 230

2500 - 330

3500 - 430

Cool stuff, thanks. When you say they're up with the SA-12's, do you mean price or quality?

 
I run 2 12" SDC's off a sundown 1500D, nice daily set up. Gets respectably loud and sounds very good on all types of music.

Not familiar with the 1500 series DD's, only the 9500's.

I would imagine either set up performing very well in the right enclosure and fed clean power.
