??? what keep in mine if you read my post i never said in the dash it was in the kick. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif It only did a 146 in the dash.

how is ur sb3 and bass race like 2.5db off?

sb3 = windows down, door open, whatever is the loudest in your vehicle with the mic placed in the kick panel. (my loudest was with both windows down about 4-5 inches.) 30 second run

bassrace= sealed up with mic on the window/dash for a 30 second run

the meters read differently too, depending on the type of competition and setting (peak score, average score, etc), both are TL's, but the bassrace (dbdrag) progressively moves up in decibels starting with 120, so i didnt get to the full 147.4 until 25-30 seconds into the run.

in sb3 (usaci) the instant i started, the meter was reading 151.x then slowly dropped as my voltage dropped throughout the 30 second run, ending up with a 150.1 total

i was facing this same thing. I went from 2 18" FI Q's and finally decided to go with 2 18" FI BTL's. My other choices where 8 10"s or 6 12"s. Heres are a bunch of budget subs that i was considering. Browse threw these and see if you get any ideas and if any of these match your price range. Oh and out of the 3 the 6 12"s have the most cone area. 6 12" type R's might be the way to go depending on available power.

maybe 2 MT's then, im basically going to get the best deal i come across, ill leave my options open. ill have to sell my 15"s first anyways, unless i get a second credit card, dont wanna do that yet unless i have to lol

shocker sigs

MT's

BTL's

HW's

idk, im still not sure on the build quality of the HdC3's, they might be another option for 18"s

 

[JBGabriel 10+ year member]

When you do sell those 15s I would be glad to take one of them off of your hands
