have a few questions about the 15" ICON

[bcst86 5]

well i finally have enough to order the 15" ICON and i was wondering which coil i should get. copper or aluminum? the aluminum is a little bit more money. and also i was wondering about which amp to get. would the SAZ-1000D be enough power or should i go with the SAX-1200D instead?

No such thing as too little power, the 1K will do great.

I'd go for copper coils

alright. they are cheaper too. why are the aluminum coils more?

[Julian 641]

Because the alum can handle more power than traditional copper coils, they may be flat wound also.

If you want to switch it to the Alum Coils (for +$25), I have one in stock , can ship it out tomorrow, other wise it will have to be built up. Let me know!

hmmm. is there a sound difference between the two? i still dont know if it is worth the +25 or not.

IMO it's worth it for the extra power handling these have. Copper has a slightly smoother sound to it, but the Alum is my favorite.

will the SAZ-1000D still be a good choice for it since it will have the extra power handling?
