[QUOTE="Braindead, post: 8192303, member: 654322"] I feel like it's time to plan my next build to get louder and push more air, and i have a few ideas. The first is adding a third xd-10 to the two i already have, and running them @1500w at 2.something ohms. This is kinda what i'm leaning towards but the two I currently have are pretty beat up, seeing as they were my first subs and I experimented with them accordingly. At one point I sent each 200w extra to each for 5 songs trying to show off, ended up filling my car with the smell of coils. The second idea I have is one beefy 15 (don't want to give up the space for an 18) and run it at anywhere from 1000w-1500w depending on the sub I choose; a few subs that i'm considering are a DC lvl4, Tantric HD, Sundown X or Fi Q. The sub would get a ported box built to spec from a builder on here. The third would be two 12's, but that'd be kinda last ditch. Anyways, which would move more air and get louder? The 10's with more cone area, or the 15 with way more excursion? Is the extra excursion going to beat out the extra area, and move more air? If possible I'd like to move hair around inside my car, I know I won't be pulling hair tricks with a setup like this but I care more about the inside than the outside. Amp choice will depend on the setup, but with the 15 I'd probably go with a D1 and keep my current amp. [/QUOTE]
