Alright.

I got a kicker kx 700.5.

It gives 420w @ 2 ohm.

What would you choose:

• ONE Kicker Solo Baric L5 10" (450w RMS)
   
   
  
• OR
   
   
  
• TWO Kicker Comp VR 12" (400w RMS)
  

Tell me what you would do.

2 comps with double the cone area splitting the wattage.

What do you mean? "double the cone area" ?

i think i have an idea bout what he said- basically total amount of watts used in the same but with 2 subs, over the one more air is getting moved- probably creating more SPL, correct me someone if im wrong

just an idea

But I dont know how you do it.

Like, seperate box'es? Or.. no, I dont have a clue how you "double the cone area"..

 

[deComposion 10+ year member]

Alright, what he means is that he would have the two CVR's because it moves more air right?

cone = front of a subwoofer. cuz - well, its usually shaped like a cone.

you can put the in the same box. and then just hook them up. get TWO SVC4 Kicker CVR's or a PAIR of DVC2 CVR's

or maybe contemplate getting a 15" sub? like the resonant engineering SE with DVC4 setup. kinda underpowered tho //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

why do you wanna run it at 2ohms?

//edit

OH 700.5

lol. id look into some RLI-8's http://www.soundsplinter.com

just cause they are a bigger size.... doesnt mean DOUBLE the cone area.... as one.... its a totally different equation compaired to

1 sub times 2....

Doesnt work like that

Guys, dont waste your time with posting urls to other web shops.

Im either going for 2 Comps 12", 2 CVR 12" or 1 L5 10", thats why I need your opinions. I cant decide yet.

 

[suparunna2000 10+ year member]

[deComposion 10+ year member]

But seriously, come on, help me out here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Go with the 2 CVR's and don't worry about what other folks write. I believe that this setup will yield the best results. I have owned L7's and CVR's. I would only use the L5/L7 if I had a single sub but if you have the space for two and 400watts then go with the CVR's.

Alright, thats more like it.

Thanks =)
