[QUOTE="Deon1818, post: 8775504, member: 661289"] So. I'm considering going bigger on my daily. I would need a H.O. and a bigger amp but I'll handle that. My first question is does Neodymium have any direct advantages or disadvantages over Ferrite other than weight savings if magnet force is equal? My second question is how much can I rely on WiniSD to give me the truth? Can it compare woofer output? For the woofer in this build I'm considering an Fi neo3.5 or a sundown X v3. Both 12's Sundown isn't the best at updating their site or listing parameters, but from what i gathered and inputed in Wini, the Fi beats the X in every situation I've put up. Not by much, but it still wins. I've tried bigger boxes, smaller boxes, more and less power. Is it possible the parameters are slightly off? I'm not super experienced with wini and usually just use it to see what size box and port to use. not to compare woofers. My third question is direct to Fi. Is there a disadvantage to their cooling options. On the Neo subs it says "[I]Neo3.5: Comparable to the older Q series drivers. Great SQ (especially with full cool/IND options.[/I] " [I]"New cooling and inductance features that are set up in stages. The first stage is a machined aluminum pole sleeve. This provides better heat wicking and is the first portion of inductance linearizing and reduction. The second stage is a combination of the pole sleeve and an amluminum domed compression cap.
