Need help picking out a new system...

[KingofDetroit 10+ year member]

Okay, first off either set up , they're going into a custom built box (ported) for sure...I can't decide which would be the best set up... 2 15" Type R subwoofers? 2 12" Diamond D6 subwoofers? 2 12" 12W6v2s?, 3 15" P312D4s by Rockford Fosgate? 1 12"W7 ? or 1 MTX Thunder T9515-44...? All running off recommended RMS Wattage...See I drive a 1995 Cadillac Deville Concours, and I want a set up that will get loud, bang boomy bass, will stay up wit the song...(SO BASICALLY THE ALL AROUND QUALITY OF THE SET UP SHOULD NOT BE SET AROUND JUST SPL I want it to be like nothing else Im mean I'm riding a cadillac Deville I want it to be crisp sound quality wise but at the same time bang loud as hell...should I go sealed custom enclosure? I know JL 12W7 will do this, but I wanted to know if it was possible to save a little money and put that into a huge box...If I go JL, I would do the 2 12w6v2s!!! Does it mount up to a single 12w7? Will the single 12w7 in a huge ported or sealed box kill all these set ups?

You do realize why that didn't work, don't you ?

Anyways....are you open to other suggestions for subwoofers aswell? Because you could also do something like a pair of 15" Soundsplinter Rl-p's.

what kind of music do you listen to? how much space and money do you have to spend as well as how much power from your amp(s) do you have?

two 15" R's would most likely pwn the other setups as far as SPL goes (with recommended power, box, etc.)

I've been told they have great sound quality as well, (not quite W6v2 quality but up there)

Seriously though, who can honestly tell the sound quality differences between a w6 and a type r? If you can, i would like you to point them out to me... because for 150$ difference, you are paying for brand not performance IMO, but as always, i could be wrong

I wouldn't think One Dub7 would not be a louder if any than two w6's, and especially NOT louder then 2 15" R's... And the two R's cost as much as one Dub7 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

LOL, i'd hope so (you must link to a URL, not a directory on your comp)

i'm a big JL fan and had a 13W7 and it was amazing. just way too heavy for my honda, lol. i also have had a Type R 15 and it was nice, but doesn't compare to the 13w7. right now i have 2 12w6v2's sitting here that i haven't hooked up so i'm looking to sell them. not sure on price yet, but i paid $700 shipped for them. if you decide to go with 2 12w6v2's, send me a message.

Thanks for everyones opinion, very well appreciated! Also about those "15" Soundsplinter Rl-p's" How much do they cost, where can I find them? DO they have good sound quality along with boominess? Thanks for telling me the picture of my car didn't show, will fix! I leaning towards the two Type Rs 15"s, what amp should i run them on? Any more opinions, before I make a sound *decision*//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/typing.gif.fd7c44a94b6ea7a328969e3ae0e010f7.gif I retyped this word like 10 times I swear...Lol

me personally i wouldn't go with type r's...the soudn quality isn't that great....i'd go with the Rlps or D6s
