eD Packages?

[knee-slapper]

Before I knew about the Elemental Designs packages, I was looking for a system that would put out the SPL but have decent SQL at the same time. My sub amp combo I originally picked was an eD nine.1 and a RE XXX 12". Is there a package, or more specifically, will the eD subs (I was looking at the 2 13Ov.2s package for $600) be anything like one XXX? Which subs from eD would be the best at putting out the SPL? Would 2 13Ov.2s put out anywhere near as much SPL as one XXX?

Well, considering the Ov.2's aren't released yet...

I would wait a little bit on eD, or go with one of the '04 Nomex flat cones.

Actually, the ov.2's started shipping last week. I know a few people have gotten their 16ov.2's already. The only review I have read so far was pretty good, but not very in depth. The guy was running 2 16ov2s sealed. Apparently it plaid everything he threw at it great.

Ah...I haven't been keeping up with ICIXsound.com like I used to...that's good to hear.

Are these anything like the old O's?

If so I understood they were a strictly SQ woofer..

I really dont know anything about the old o series, but on icxsound.com Ben and a couple others were saying the new ov.2's should be real similar to the old a series. The ov2 should have slightly better sq, but wont get quite as loud.

Well, I run the old A series in my van, and I've heard the lower line of woofers from them (K series), so if the new Ov.2's are anything like those, they'll be excellent. The old O series were killer SQ subs, yeah...but their one "problem" was that they weren't suited for ported enclosures at all.

The old A's were comparable to the Brahma and XXX just to give you an idea...

I have a 12" XXX and nine.1 and it sounds great.....if that's what you want, I'd say go for it.

the ov2's are a very good comparison to the flat cone A series. SQ is alittle better imo, and you won't tell the difference spl wise without a meter.

with the capabilities of the ov2, i don't see why 2 13ov2's wouldn't outperform a single 15xxx.

also, i gave the 16ov2 proto a mean beating, these things just aren't gonna break //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
