Loudest 15" off 600 watts?

Will a 15" ssd be significantly louder than a 12" Q off the same power though?

x2, the SSD gets pretty loud off of 600 watts and sounds great. Never actually heard an IA Lethal Injection, but all I hear is good things about them. You might want to look into one of those as well.

i wish i never sold my LI. that thing got very loud off only 400wrms (you can find the thread with videos if you search) , and narsx says his sounds excellent too. theyre worth taking a good look at imo.

Werddd.

Lethal injection FTW...loved that sub. It was the first car audio sub I ever got, and I STILL have it because I love it that much. Can't go wrong with the DD 1515 for output either //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

^^^ I see a lot of recommendations of people telling you how to spend your money, but no one is telling you how to find the right solution. The brand and driver are not important, you need to find the right specs before you commit to anything.

You need to look at the SPL @ 1 watt spec. The other thing to look at xmax, but you need to consider how much you need, more importantly "don't" need. With 600 watts as say 88dB @ 1 watt (an average 15" car woofer), you might not be able to push that past 10-15mm xmax depending on what kind of box you use. If you cut xmax, you cna usally increase SPL @ 1 watt by looking at higher output pro-audio like drivers. So you can ditch the 88dB for maybe a 92dB @ 1 watt driver that maybe has 15mm of xmax rather than 30. xmax is usually a tradeoff of sensitivity.

my brother only had about 600 watts to play with in his car and i built him a custom 15" TC9 driver that had about 94dB @ 1 watt and a good 15mm xmax. That thing absolutely pounds.

Just don't get Type-R or Kicker, and you will be fine.......

You like the sound of the 12Q? Maybe you should pony up the extra dollars and buy a 15Q?

That sounds like the best answer for you. IF you already like the sound of the Q.

Personally, I love it, it is a great woofer, I just need to sell my L7's and get some dry weather to make some extra coin, and I will buy one myself.

For the cheapest 15" sub that'll get loud off little power go for the Kicker cvr 15". You can snag one for $115 shipped brand new. It will surprise you.
