swing is an appropriate word for a nutthugger //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

and regardless of whether on not TC is having any issues at the moment or in the past His sub is superior to any of the other options listed...

I'm gonna have to agree with the first statement lol. Both TC and DD are great drivers but I see more people running the DD's and have heard a lot of good about how nice they sound in an SQ setup.

The DD will take the most abuse, the TC should sound the best, the DC and havoc are inbetween.

i disagree ive ran the dd 3512 and the havocs ,the havocs beat them overall ,louder and sounded better,now the dc s ive seen take a severe beating and keep playing loud and sound good too.the tc woofers would prolly bre the loudest out of all of them but seeing that there has been problems with the company ,i dont think i'd go there.[out of business ,in business, and then again out]

Sooooo install dependent. The Havoc is an excellent sub woofer and should not be overlooked. With the state of TC a the moment, I might hesitate on going that direction.

buying from Parts express is the saving grace for the TC option they cover the sub not TC..

Personally I would go with the DC lvl 4 with 5 softparts. They have been proven to be able to daily on 2000 clean watts. So 5k on 4 of em wouldn't even be a sweat.

1250rms on a dd3500 isnt even enough to get it moving lol

dd rates the 3500 at 1200 rms, so is the havoc, and i believe a lvl4 with lvl5 soft parts is rated 1500, but 1250-1300 watts should be plenty to move the magnet, just be alot harder to blow the vc's
