I never really got too many replies the last time i posted this. I really am not impressed with the output from 2 AQsdc2.5 12s.(4.28 cu feet tuned to 35hz) Its decently loud but not what I expected. SQ is pretty good. What are some single subs that would sound just as good or better but be an increase in output. around the 1000-1200wrms range. Im thinking a single 15.

it is going to be difficult to make 1 15 louder than 2 12s on the same power

I'm assuming you are looking at 2 SSD's for the 1800rms you have to work with correct? If so, that will be a real nice system. The SSDs are solid subs. I loved mine when I had it. I think you will be happy with 2 SSDs off 1800rms.

Yea I've had 2 12'' 2.5s and I've always wondered how they compared with SSD's. If anyone has had experience with both, please post.

Phil and I used to argue the SSD vs the SDC2.5s all the time. Of course we were both quite biased lol. I wanna say we came to a logical conclusion but I forgot what we decided :-(
