Kicker CompVX 15, Soundstream Tarantula, or..

[Ineedmorebass 10+ year member]

I made a post the other day regarding a multiple sub setup in my Civic, and..

Well, scratching that idea.

I would have gone for an L7 15, but they like a 6ft + port box and it would be pretty sketch getting that

In and out of my trunk.

Now, I noticed the CompVX calls for a foot smaller box, which is doable, and handles 900 in a ported

enclosure vs the L7's rated 750. Also, being as it has a higher sensitivity, I'm thinking it might be almost

as loud. Ideas?

I came across a few other "smaller enclosure" 15s in my quest for mad poundage.

Thoughts on the Soundstream Tarantula 15? 1000w RMS like the CVX, and a little bit

cheaper. Thoughts on that? Vs. The CVX?

What about the MOFO 15? Any good?

Any other woofer suggestions?

No more than 300$ for the sub would be nice.

1000-1500 RMS would be my range.

Subzero, or anyone else know much about the differences between the Tarantula T6s and T7s?

Look for SPLaudio's custom subs. I'm telling you they will get lower and louder, for that price and power, better than anything you can buy.

This. Or Obsidian or Gcon... The choices are pretty much wide open at a 300 dollar price point. I would look in the classifieds. There's plenty of subs in there that fit what you're looking for. Also ace_800 had a good suggestion. Tell Corey what you want and he'll build a nice sub for 300 bucks. There's an SPL Audio sub in the classifieds right now that fits your criteria.

What's the deal with the Audioque HDC3 18? If I went for the 15s in this, would I be best going copper or aluminum for the price?

If I could make a box that would fit, I surrree would love to have an 18! A friend had to crappy Rockford 18s like 10 years ago and they

straight pounded. Thoughts?
