[QUOTE="Papermaker85, post: 7687239, member: 572595"] look without getting into too much detail larger diameter drivers as far as subwoofers are more efficient and mos definitely don't sound worse than their smaller counterparts.. there is a lot that goes into designing a speaker than simply cone size.. from my experience frequencies below 80 he aren't very directional therefor larger cones have greater displacement capibilities per stroke, this means as long as your suspension is linear you can get lower distortion figures over your output curve.. I'll often recommend single larger drivers even when someone wants a sq oriented system if they have the space.. it's simple, less chances for distortion.. something that has a high power compression aka easily handles the input without the coil getting hot and causing abnormal fluxuations something that has a low inductive/capacitive fluxuations linear spiders throughout stroke used and finally a very solid structure cone coils former etc.. with that being said alignment/acoustical properties like box placement cabin res freq structure etc do matter but those are more or less set parameters..
