More cone area or not, I wouldnt choose anything pioneer unless it was a deck, and I quit getting those

What about the SDC's?

I second that ^ (2) 12 inch sdc off 1800-2000 rms would be a darn nice setup given you build a good box . And it would be easy on the wallet

But arent the SDC's 600 rms each? Would they be able to take 1000+rms per speaker?

everyone has wood for AQ these days, but I would guess very vew people have actually heard both the SDC AND the w3001, much less side by side for a true comparison.

I think the Pio would compare pretty well. If SPL is what you're going for then definitely the pair of Pio's.

The Pioneers are loud and get pretty low sealed or ported. I like them and would have a pair if I could find them cheap enough. They are some durable subs also. Mine took my abuse for months. Heres a vid

Im sorry but I will have to differ . I've heard both subs and I've owned the sdc's . The AQ's will own the Pioneer in mostly all aspects . I like the Pioneers for the money. Great bang for the buck sub , but the AQ will get louder on less power, and sound better given it's put in the right enclosure . Now if your stating that everyone has wood AQ, almost refering to the fact on thats why I made my previous post in this thread, the answer is no . It was based on the fact that I have knowledge with both subs .

Thanks for reply guys. Can the AQ HDC312 take 2200 rms on a daily basis?

Yes, I reccomend getting the alum coils for that power.

those pioneers are way louder than i had expected. We pulled some in from our distributor for our average walk-ins and they were actually actually just as loud (by ear) as the RE SX's on an US Amps MD3D. both were in identical audio enhancer enclosures. good subs for the price.

get a 12 or 15 hdc3 and get the alum coil if your going to be hitting it with 2k w or more.
