Pair of 12s that are loud and low

[JoeK 10+ year member]

Just looking around for a pair of 12s that will be on 3500 watts that love lows. I dont care about dB numbers, just want some lows with authority in them.

I've heard a pair of DADs go **** low, but not enough power for me.

Right now im looking at two Orion HCCA 12.4s; i will be underpowering them for longitivity sake.

So lets place my budget for brand new pair of 12s @ $1000

And of course, two D4s for a final impedence of 1ohm

Honestly any 12s you get from a reputable company that will handle 3500 watts will hit low notes if you put it in a low tuned box.

This question has been asked so much this past week

What is considered reputable changes per person. Just wondering what kind of feedback i got on my choice. I'm really liking Orion lately for some odd reason.

I won't be going Fi again, Skar ZVX subs appear to like higher notes judging by just Fs alone, Looking into DC now, probably XLs. Not a big fan of sundown subs, and i havent gotten to SSA yet.

Orions have 4" coils but better can be had for 1000$ ask dtrom about them . I never ran then but never heard much good either

Im thinking 2 12s can get louder than 1 15 in the space i have.
