Trying to decide on sub...

[SilverSquared 10+ year member]

I am trying to decide on which sub to run. I have narrowed my selection down to three subs. I would like to know, from experience, what are the pros/cons as far as why I should or should not run the sub. I've heard mixed reviews on all of them, yet none were from people CURRENTLY using said sub. So, I turn to YOU GUYS for advice. This is for Four 15" subs I will run in my 2011 ext cab Silverado. I already have a vented enclosure (had 4 SA-15s). If I should run another model of said brand, let me know. I have one Massive D8000.1, but can get another.

1.) dB Drive K9

2.) American Bass XFL

3.) RE Audio ***

xxx new models aren't that great ,too much for them as well ,dont know about the db drive never ran or installed them ,the xfl is a good sub for 195 each that will get low and take alot of power

I've heard/read that the newer XFL's soft parts aren't as good as they used to be, am I getting false info?

you are so wrong ,the new xfl is better than the older ones .larger spider landing ,stiffer spiders = more power handling

Awesome. That's motivational. I think I will hit up my friend who sells AB and order a set of 4 from him.

Will do. Not sure on the pricing. I'm gonna do some searchin on the subs again, to see if I need a 2nd amp or not. I think I may.

nope you need a big mono block amp then get d2 subs wire them all to a 1 ohm load.a vfl 450 .1 r 500.1 would be perfect

Just not so sure about wiring it down to 0.5 for daily use. But, it says that's its "stable" point...so why not? Right? LMAO
