Switching from SQL to SPL

[negative3five 10+ year member]

Hey I just sold my last system a SI Mag 15 running off a ED Nine.1. This time around i'm looking for all out spl. I narrowed the choices down to a 18" TC5200, 18" FI BTL fully loaded, and a DD9515 (do they come in 18's?). What do you think will be all out loudest out of the choices? The amps I narrowed it down to were the IA 40.1, Memphis 4kw, Adassa Audio Warlord which one would put out the most power at 14.4v's ? I'm looking for daily driver loud the box is gonna be 6.5 cubes tuned to 30-32hrtz. Also do you think 2 12's off the same amp would be louder then the one 18" with the same power?

i have a tc5200 18 off a mojo in 3.5cubs @ 34Hz......couldnt be any happier. The other subs listed are very nice. but the tc IMO will get just as any bit louder while still mainting VERY NICE musical reproduction in a good daily box. now this comes at a price, those 5200's are prices.........

........but snoops got one for sale for like 550 + ship......which is beyond a good price. you wont find a better driver at that price than that TC.

If you have enough power dont run it in the 6.5 cubs box though. ive doen that and if you have more than 2.5kw u should go with a smaller box. they're made to work better in smaller boxes.... i love my subw ith aburning passion man. couldnt be happier when i can abort babies at 40Hz....

as far as the amps. the warlord would probly get you the most power. if u cant afford it look into an atomic 5000.1, it's the same board //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

do the single beast sub. it's worth it. especially since snoops got one for uber cheap right now. i wish i only paid 600 ish for mine lol

theres probably very little difference in all 3 drivers but i would take a DD9518G

from what i hear about the TC, it will get pretty loud and still sound good on music. that being said, i think my HD3 sounds good on music and gets pretty f'n loud. i went from a mag to the HD3, and i couldn't be happier. i'm only selling it to save some space.
