cone area vs power

[swagger_wagon468 53]

SO... im trying to gat an idea of what im going to do for my setup in the wagon. I will be walling it off. As some of you know... I bought a new daily driver that I gotta get running. So this build will be after all that is done.

I just want to get an idea of what I will be doing.

my original idea was to go with 4zconsa on 4saz3ks. But I was thinking... would a bunch if Dcons get louder? My goal id obviously to get loud while sound good doing it...that's why im going with SSA. I was thinking of doing something like a clamshell if I do the icons. Maybe like 16 12's or 10's. Something like that. Maybe on 2 saz3500s. Just trying to get some opinions.

Wow i would love to see 16 12's that would be one hellova ride

Id go with cone area over power. 16 subs are expensive though.

Save some cash and go with dcons.

12 Dcons on 2 saz3k's would be brutal, I love cone area also

[emh9009 199]

8 15" Icons? I like the idea of more cone area, but Zcons are so damn sexy!

Cone area > power.

But multiple drivers add up quick...can you say dcons!?

i think it would also.

well, before shipping, the 4 18" ZCONs would be about $2k and 16 12" DCONs would be about $2k also.

thats the delima as of now. but it seems as everyone agrees on more cone area. so i guess everyone thinks 12-16 DCON 12"s would be louder than 4 18" ZCONs? i know they will all sound good.

i think i would go with 16. haha. just because.

hmm, may be a possibilyity...

seems as you guys have alll agreed on the dcons.

Power is the least effective means of increasing output.

If the options are more power with less displacement or less power with more displacement, the latter option would be the most desirable.

That assumes you have sufficient room for an appropriate enclosure, etc.

Its always been a thought in the back of my mind.

I have plenty if room. Its a wagon (see sig) and I will be taking out the back seats.

[swagger_wagon468 53]

Has anyone ever done a build like this with dcons?

X2... epic dcon build would be off the chain!!

Haha. I know right.

Yea I didn't think there has been a mega build with DCONs. First for everything.

[Freshh 11]

Kool-aid man.. lol

But 12 or 16 of any sub is going to be loud! I'd love to see that build!

[swagger_wagon468 53]

Yea. I've decided! I will put as many DCONs as I can. It may be hard to fit... but I like a tight fit. hehe

[Punkeyboozter 19]

you might get a good discount rate if you take that million drivers.

[sefugi 166]

Lots O DCONS!!!!! I like that idea!!! You could more than likely slim down on the power (2-3500s?).

Depending on your time frame with this install, an FCON is in the future, could be a possible candidate as well. Then the pair of 3500s would be required.

[swagger_wagon468 53]

Oooooo...I forgot about those. Hmm that may work also. I plan on starting this after I get my coupe (daily driver) running and swapped to a 5speed. It will probly be around new years. And I will give them a little more than rms. Rather have some headroom. And I know they can take it.

Yep Yep!!

When you start this build I can't wait for the build log
