this will be my final versus thread lol. so im thinking about either 2 sa 12s or 2 dc lv 3 12s..i know everyone just admires the sa's but id like honest answers. lets say both are runnin on a mb quart 1500.1 and are wired to 1 ohm and in thier own ported box...which will get louder and will take more power? im thinking the sa's will take more power but i have no idea. all i know is the DC's have a 3 inch aluminum coil and the sa's have a 2.5 inch copper coil iirc... thoughts?

 
when i model them with winisd, sundowns get louder from 40hz down, 40hz up dc is louder. thats with 1500 watts and in what the manufacturers recommend for ported box sizes, tuned to 32hz

You are decently accurate with that statement. DC will meter louder most of the time though.
