Replacing my CVX's

[raybuck 10+ year member]

I have 2 12" CVX's ran off of a zx1500.1 and I am looking for a better sounding set up SQ wise, but i also want it to get loud. I was thinking of a single 15" HDC3 or BL. I also was considering 2 12" FI SSD's. I want better sound quality, i don't mind if it is a little quieter then the CVX's.. Suggestions? And I will be running them off the zx1500.1

Thank you.

EDIT: Price range is about $450-$500ish for the sub/subs.

A pair of Boston G5's would fit the bill perfect. Get loud and sound great doing it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

2 SSA Icons-Great SQ and will get loud

2 Mach 5 IXL 12.2- accurate sub that is a low end monster

If I was to upgrade from CVXs those would be the two I would get. The mach 5s are under 200shipped each!

Will the SSA Icons sound decent on only 800rms each? Thanks for the suggestions.

How about you try a new box before investing in new subs...

get a Fi Q 15" fully loaded and throw it in a 4 cubic foot box @ 32hz

Would a 15" HDC3 have better sound quality then my CVX's ran off of my 1500.1?

I am thinking of replacing my whole set up. I am trying to decide between

1) AQ4X90. AQ1200D. (2) RE SE 12's in 4 cubes

or

2) Nine.4. Nine.1. (2) ED 13Ov.2 in 4 cubes

Which do you all think would suit my wants of SQ and get decently loud?
