None of those woofers combination compare to one another.

What's your budget?

18" SSA Xcon!

thats a thought but never heard one in person

[Shogen 325]

me either... but I have read enough and I own an Icon subwoofer... I don't think this would disappoint ... Your budget grants 2 of them...

[beatindowndablock247 0]

do you think it will be loud by its self i used to always have 1 solo x 18 in the trunk and it got me a 146... do you all think walled up it would be a good choice again or that xcon

you gotta point.. hell when i had a 10 inch l5 on a kicker kx2500.1 it was as loud as my 2 cvx 12s on a orion d5k... alot of subs surprise me when they get the power they want... it was by far my loudest 10

I'm not a numbers guy ... hopefully someone who knows better will chime in... But I think the general answer might come back as " we need more info" .... So yea... That is all I have for now...

Although I could bet lots of monies that it will sound better.. But if you're going for numbers you might not care about quality of sound as much? I'm assuming... Could be wrong being that you mentioned porting to 32Hz... AFAIK and have heard Solo X's sound like dookie but get loud...

i wouldnt say that but then again i have had more quality sounding subs. that solo x got low and thats the notes i like to hear.. its in my daily driver (cavalier) but i do comps every year when they come around..its fun plus last year i got 2nd in modified 4 class

thought about the sa 12s doing like 6 walled up and sealed up no port. also on the fi btl n2 the new ones... but still come down to there being too many subs too choose from.... why cant there be one brand of sub with 3 models bass then loud then ouch... my life would be easy....

has anybody seen sealed up walls.. or heard one before...

only one ive seen is this guys

[Kanaworm$ 292]

Port your wall.

Walls are made to be loud, aren't they ? so, why seal it ?

You can buy 2 Fi bl 18" and be really happy with them. they should love your 3000 watts.
