sub dilemma

[dkguitarist 5,000+ posts]

ok guys. i'm looking at my options right now on what i want to do. i haven't heard any sq setups and i like spl. i can't go more than maybe 2 cubes total for a box in my trunk. maybe 2.5. no more than 3 tops. i am trading my 2500d for a tantrum 1200.1 (1500rms 2-4ohms). here are my 3 choices as of now:

1 13w7 (currently own)

2 12" 06 L7s

2 12" Brahmas (MKII)

unless you kno of a **** good deal, no other options can be considered, unless it's made for small enclosures, and can handle a good deal of power (2 12" RL-Ps if anyone has any).

opinions anyone?

What is the matter with the 13w7?

What is the matter with the 13w7?

it's hardly had any play time since i've gotten it. i'm not sure i want it much anymore cuz of how much people hype about it, tho it has been my dream sub for a while. and i can get **** good deals on the other 2 choices right now.

I would go with the 2 Brahma's in a 2 cubic ft box sealed.

i am leaning more on the brahma's just for the fact that i highly doubt that hardly anyone in oklahoma would have any let alone kno of them. and i do kno how the L7's sound (older ones anyways) and i've only heard my dub7 once.

I have 1 12 MK2 Brahma in a larger ported box and have run it sealed as well. Very few subs can work in a box that small and still hit nice and deep. Plus Brahmas can take a bunch of power but do not really have to have a bunch to still hit hard.
