I did have 2 12's l7's on a zx1500.1. Box was tuned to 33hz one 6" aeroport around 5.2 after displacement.

I am in the mood to get another set of 2 12's. I am looking to either get the same subs and run on the same amp and just change that 6" port to an 8" port for more port area but how much improvement will I notice it wont be 3db so not audible basically.

My other option was a single 15" on 1500rms but those 2 12's have more cone area so should be louder.

My last option since I dont have room for more than 1 15 or 2 12's was to pick up another zx1500 and run 2 12's something along the lines of BL, or BTL, IA, DD, AQ something that can handle 1500-1700rms daily on a single 12"

So would my best bet to run 2 12's on alot of power 3k watts roughly. Even though I am going from square subs roughly 288" compared to 2 round 12's 226" but I will be doubling the power

So 2 12's l7's 288" on 1500

2 12's round 226" on 3k watts.

 
how much louder will 2 12's round 226" cone area on 3k watts ported tuned to 33hz 8" aero be compared to

2 12's l7's 288" cone area on 1500rms ported tuned to 33hz 8" aeroport???

 
I always thought if you have 2 12's on 1500rms compared to 2 15's on 1500rms the 15's will be louder due to cone area right???

This setup is for daily no competeing

not always true. theres alot of factors added in. such as box size, power, port area, etc,etc.

This would go a long way to alleviating the dimming issue, up to around 4000 watts. It can handle 100A continuous and up to 285A 7 second burst...
