So now Ive installed the new amps

[Polar]

Check out joeybutts for sale add in the classifieds, 4 sq 12s for 260 shipped. You can wire them to get a 1ohm final load.

hmmm, just saw that. I know 4 would do much better than my 2 alpines

Black Ice 2600.1d for the subs running at 4 ohms and a Black Ice 1000.4 at 4 ohms for the components. Im in the market to replace the Type S 12's. They are moving much more air but not impressed with them. My box is slightly larger than what is needed for sealed specs. Im thinking of some HSD312's now. Any input from you guys on this? They are in my budget. Id love to go SA's but they are out of my budget. My box now is sealed, baffled in the middle and each sub sits in 1.28(1.286578) to be nerd about it.

With the space and power you have, (that black ice amp does not do close to rated at all You barely have enough for a 600-800 watt rms sub) I'd do a single 18 ported. A fu audio 18 ported would be best for your power and space for best SQ and loudness.

and FU 750-18?

Hds2s won't be better. 3s would be.
Nothing wrong with a R if it's not in a prefab.

I would get a better amp first.

Beefier/heavier than both your type S combined.

[Polar]

hmmm.

 

[Polar]

my mind is all over the place now. Thoughts on a single hdc15 vs the 2 12's? I think an 18 is waay too big for me

im in the same boat, i want either 2 12s or 1 15 in about 4-5 cubes. dont want to spend too much on subs, and i want about 2000w rms for them. interested to see what you decide, ive eyed the hdc3 12s too. ive wanted to do a single zv3/4 or x-15 if possible

 

[big scott]

if i like them 4 - 12" im getting from here im going to sell my hdc3 15" d2 sub.

he will see.

Well, single 15" is cheaper, which also means you can afford a better sub. Single HDC315 will be loud in a ported box. Not sure of how big of a box you can fit, but you'll need to go a bit larger as 2 HDS312s will be underpowered by your amp.

If I were you, I'd buy this and put it in a nice ported box:

Some of the best woofers, awesome SQ and good output. I think you'll be blown away.

do 1 of those or 2?
