Fi BL vs. Aq Hdc

[maritoze 10+ year member]

I plan on running two 12's in my montero. Its time for a change. The 15's take up my whole trunk. I've narrowed it down to these two subs, but I can't seem to choose. What are the pros and cons of both subs? Which should I get?

The BL won't be able to handle much more than the 1000 watts that it is rated for, the HDC will laugh at that much power.

From what I have heard.

Sq - BL

Spl - Aq

The BL will handle around 1500 if you get all the upgrades.

I've never heard an HDC3 but I've heard they have kind of a "hollow" sound to them.

Why doesnt anyone ever throw the deathrow into the mix? Im in a similar situation, but cant decide between a BL or DR.

Both are great subs, but I would lean toward the AQ

What other subs are out there that will take a 1000-1500 watts each?

The DR can easily be thrown into the mix.

Other posibilities: RE SX, JL w7(yea, I said it), DD 2500, DC lvl 3, etc.

....Sorry, i forgot you wanted 12"s... they make 12" variations of all of these...

Look at the build log in my sig. Ssackett built that 12 i am using. Cheaper than both of your original choices and handles 1500w plus.

Thanks for the input. RE completely slipped my mind.

I'm not a fan of the newer RE stuff.

from experience with the bl's i no that they like smaller boxes so that helps with your space issue. they do get loud and sound really well. i dont no very much bout the aq's so i wont say anything lol
