I would go with the AQ's

are these for sale? Would the HDC3 happen to be D2? Thx so much.

I'd go with the RD Alpha's, AQ isnt bad but its starting to get like Fi. Not too many ppl know ab RD.

i can't say output wise, i would guess the hdc would take the edge there. power handling, i'd guess the same.

hard to compare output because the only audioques i've heard have been my 18s in an obviously loud install, compared to a buddys car i heard a couple years ago with an old alpha 12 on something like 800 watts. sounded great but not quite as loud as a pair of 18s...

based on what i heard, and general opinion seems to be the alphas are very accurate subs.

I would have to say the AQs, I believe the Alphas are more SQ based.

HDC's will take a beating. I demo'd for almost 20 minutes straight with my HDC's and each one off a 3500D and they didn't even get stinky.

Not convinced that the RD's will hold up for daily pounding over the long haul...

Ive had both. I had a 12" with flatwind coils. Took my 20.1 daily easily and would have taken more. Also sound really good. Aq's didnt sound quite as good but got very loud as well off less power. Its really your choice. Either is a win IMO

Lol. In your dreams. Rd's will take the power better IMO. They did for me at least.

both would be a win. id do rd because not many ppl have heard of them plus they are cheaper. and rd's do get loud. plus for a daily beater id tune at like 33 and the rd's I think will do better there than the AQ's (i beleive) but my aq did get loud.. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

My experience has been just the opposite, although I've never run RD subs in my car. But a guy on my team has run paperweights and now alphas and they don't hold up, but they do get loud...
