[QUOTE="Jakerrr, post: 7586472, member: 637923"] Bigger is better for the most part. A cheap 12 could be outperformed by a beast of an 8 but generally speaking, given the proper enclosure, more cone area will yield more sound pressure given a certain power input. The low frequency performance will increase as xmax and cone area increase, all other things equal. If you have room, get a bigger sub. I just don't want you to get the idea that small subs are generally better. Pretty much the only advantage to them is space. The box is a bigger factor. [/QUOTE]
