One more Q vs SSD

[2002XLT 0]

Ok, i just purchased an Autotek 750.1, and was told that it should put out just under 1K watts. Ive been trying to decide if i want to buy another Q for this amp so i can upgrade later on, or buy a SSD for now. This is kinda a budget build until i get enough cashflow to do what i truly want. (which is 2 15" Qs with BP ported)

So my main question is, will the SSD and the Q sound basically the same off 1K watts, with the same enclosure, or will the SSD be louder since its taking a lot of power for it, vs the Q which is really just getting started.

Also, what are the main advantages/disadvantages to both drivers? Ive owned a Q before and loved it, so im pretty set on staying with Fi. Thanks for any input/opinions/suggestions.

Q is supposed to be more sq oriented... If you loved your q then go for something you know you like or you could do the ssd but it will at least need flat wind probably and then you could sell that once you get money for a second amp and the two 15" q's... You are gonna get another amp for them right?

The output cannot be determined until tested in you vehicle. If you were happy with the Q, stick with it I say.

You can't run one Q and one SSD in the same car

Ya, i actually ended up trading the autotek, and it looks like im trading a laptop for a massive 3000.1 which should give me the power i need to run the 2 qs. So now im happy!

Truth.

Hmm...im pretty sure i could if i wanted to be ghetto, but thats not at all what was in my OP, did you even read it?
