Decent SQ subs

Yeah, I was looking at Diamonds. Can one D6 handle 1000w rms though? I think they are only rated for 600 or so. I can only afford one of those right now. Can the D3s handle 500 apiece? Like I said earlier, I want to use all my power. Which setup would be better, 1 D6 or 2 D3s?

Easily, Diamond went WAY conservative with their power ratings.

So should I get 1 D6 or 2 D3s. Which setup will give me the best sq and out put.

Keep in mind that I'd have to do sealed on the D3s, but could probably go ported on the single D6.

Thanks

Single D6 ported with that much power potential should pound.

Thanks much.

Just an afterthought, does anybody know what the sq/output of an Fi SSD ported would be like?

How about two 10" IDQs?

Read the thread. Those have already been suggested, and won't handle the power I'm using

From personal experience, Memphis M-Class subs are hard to beat for the price. Hell anything M-Class is hard to beat for the price. Memphis makes some solid stuff, and the M-Class subs i have are fairly shallow. Might wanna look into those.

BTW- Theyre rated at 250RMS, but ive been running them in a sealed box for a year and a half now beating the everliving shit out of them with 900RMS daily. Tough subs. I cant kill them, and have only bottomed one out sending a lotta power to a single coil.

As a matter of fact, my first system was 2 Mclass 12s and an Mclass 500D

I'd love to get 4 of them to distribute the power better, but I have no Idea where I can get them in my price range. My local dealer has the Older style(Chromish finish) ones for $85 apiece.

I blew one of my old ones when I was retarded about Car audio. Sent an uber distorted signal through it. Replaced it on warranty and sold it all to a buddy of mine. He still has it all to this very day.

lol. My amp doesnt clip enough to be any danger to my subs. Hell i even turned bass boost to +12dB and turned the gain up to max to blow either the amp or the subs (i need a reason to replace one of the two) And neither would die... Oh yeah, and my next setup is either 2 RE SE's if i keep my amp, 2 RE SX's if i get a new amp, or if i decide to get memphis again ill go with 2 M1 15's.
