SPL Sub for 1500watts and 4.2cuft

[transamfan 10+ year member]

I have a chance to buy a couple of AQ HDC3 12's for cheap. I have never even seen these speakers in person so I don't know what they're all about. I have a Kicker L7 15" sitting right here next to my computer BNIB ready to be installed. I am thinking about getting the HDC3's but need some input from you guys. I am looking for it to be at least as loud and sound better than the L7. Thank you.

Need some subs for cheap. Looking to spend $300 or so.

I have been comparing 2 HDC3 12's to the Kicker L7 15 on WinISD and it looks like the L7 should be louder. I don't know how reliable the program is, but like I said I don't know just a whole lot about this stuff. Anyway, could I be off the mark here? Also, I thought that JL W7's were supposed to be pretty loud, so I used them as a reference but WinISD shows them at a much lower SPL than the other two. This makes me think that I am not running the software right.

Found a good deal on a DD 9515 and a Fi BL 15". Both are about the same price. Again, I only have the 1500 watts to push it. Will I see any improvement with either of these over the L7? Would really like to shoot for the mid 140's mark. Car is a 98 ***** Am.
