vs thread..need to order TODAY!

[matte 10+ year member]

thats right, need to order today or tomorrow =]

(1) 12" nightshade

(1) mach5 spl12

(2) aq hdc310's

all off ~1500 watts clean power for now, and more in the near future //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

which would be louder/sound better?

so far im leaning more towards the aq's just because of cone area..i have, however, heard amazing things about the other 2 drivers listed above.

please, i NEED your input! im trying to order TODAY!

any other suggestions that are not listed above, are welcome.

thanks,

matt

edit - also, trying to get this setup LOUDER than what i currently have - a 15" RD Alpha v.2 off 1500 watts.

[matte 10+ year member]

so 2 hdc310's > spl12 > nightshade 12" ?

So you want to get louder than a 15" on the same power with less cone area?

Buy two Konaki's and recone when you get the cash

And you wont be disappointed with any of your choices, it's all up to what you personally would rather do

I'd probably do the Mach, just because I've realllly been wanting to try one.

The Nightshade has the potential to sound the best out of the list you provided while being as loud as the other options.

...especially off of clean watts. When you get into dirty watts you may need to run your amplifier through a washing machine to clean up the watts. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif Tumble dry on low press and you'll be good to go! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

FYI... NightShades get loud off only 1500watts. I have no experience with the others.

 

[SeanDub 10+ year member]

yes, thats exactly what im trying to do.

You do realize that is basically impossible. Tell me why less cone area would be louder than more cone area with the same power.

I vote a 15" Night Shade

 

[matte 10+ year member]

^^ cant do another 15..and why cant 2 10's be louder than a 15? its only a little less cone area..what if the box is better? what if the subs are more efficient?

2 10" HDC310s for sure.
