So many choices!! Help choose one

[Pickler 10+ year member]

Hey guys im new here, but youve all probably seen me on the other forums. Right now im just choosing 1 sub, either a 12 or 15, (and will eventually upgrade and get another). I have a big SUV so i have plenty of room for a box. I just cant decide on which sub. Im going for just about all SPL. (not going to compete, just want to be loud)

My budget for the sub is around 400-475 (shipped)

I have a lot of choices so far, here is a couple im thinking of, but you can post some too.

There is the small issue of it not being within his budget.

My friend has 2 of those. They slam. Any recomendations though?

I'm guessing the DD or rockford for straight SPL, and the TC-3000 if you want SQL.

oh, i thought the TC was more towards SPL.

• 250oz motor structure

• xmax of 34mm (one way linear travel)

• Dual (10"/8") poly-cotton spiders with intergraded woven leads (12,15/10)

• Extra spacing in-between spiders for lateral stability

• Extra clearance under the suspension for dynamic high excursions

• Detachable cast aluminum basket with high gloss power coating

These will probably kill all of the above in SPL. Your best bet for sure and killer prices.

I'm not sure on motor, but they are the 9515 model with RE soft parts...

 

[Pickler 10+ year member]

so will it be as loud as lets say a 9515f?

 

[Rc 415 10+ year member]

Should be.
