Need Help Deciding ... ZRS vs DCX

[D-monday 10+ year member]

Both set-ups are going to be ran off an Orion 2500D @ 1 ohm.

Im thinking about either going with the Cadence ZRS-12's:

1000 WATTS RMS

FREQUENCY RESPONSE 25 - 500Hz

MAGNET WEIGHT 224 oz

SPEAKER WEIGHT 35 lbs.

SPL @ 1w/1m 89dB

ZRS12 $240

or I might spend the extra money and get the Cadence DCX series for $300 a sub.

1500 WATT RMS

FREQUENCY RESPONSE 31-500Hz

MAGNET WEIGHT 340 oz

SPEAKER WEIGHT 50 LBS

SPL @ 1w/1m 83.31

Im debating between the two setups, because since the sensitivity is higher for the zrs's shouldn't they be louder than 2 DCX's off the same amount of power?

not nec, dcx is more in line with an audioque hdc much bigger sub, 50 pounds 2 be exact.

i would look into some audioque hdc3's with the alum coil for that price

Audioque: Heavy Duty: HDC3

249 a piece and basically same sub as dcx
