2 DCONS.. Amp Suggestion?

[JJordan791 0]

will be buying 2 DCON 12's Dual 4 ohm Subwoofers.

looking for a amp in the range of 200$ that will power these properly.

will be using a dual champer ported box, each chamber is 1.8 c/f and the sub is recomened 1.75c/f

But on the other hand im also very much considering a single 12" ICON

with a ported enclosure matching specs.

In reguards to excurrsion and making allot of noise, will i be able to afford a amp to get the single icon to outperform the 2 dcons for spending about 200$ on a amp?

I drive a cobalt, subs will be going in trunk

Thank you very much in advance, for any possible information.

I would say for the money the two dcons and a amp would be the better choice. For a amp a aq750 for 200 is a good choice.

for the money, i could also get 2 rockford fosgate p2's

they have a rms off 500 each, and are a little cheaper then the dcon.

Ive just heard such good stuff about both products, but where i'd be spending the same amouth of money on either i want the most boom for my buck

We have had a number of customers grab a Sundown SAX-125.2 and paired it up with two Dcon's and loved the results and minimal current draw.

The DCONs are much better quality than the RFs. Also made in the USA!

the icon or decons would be a better choice than the r/f's

exactlyy what i wanted to hear, i kept convincing myself the rfs were better, for no reason becase ive never owned rf or ssa, but in comparison... would the 2 dcons be persay louder then the 2 rfs in the means of rattling your car apart.

The enclosure will have a huge effect on that.

In the optimal enclosures, the DCONS will outperform the P2s. Aaron beat me to it^^

Thats your opinion not fact. The dcons are the better choice.

those r/f p2's are 400 w rms not 500 w rms

with that being said, what would be the optimal enclosure for what im trying to do?

im aware prob ported? but possibly a couple links of enclosures that would do the trick?

The enclosure will depend on the amount of power you are using.

~1 cube net per driver. Tuning will be based on your taste, but I'd go for 33-34.

Skip the AQ. Get the Sundown SAX125.2 as Aaron suggested. No need to run more power than suggested.

Depends on what coils if they will be over powered.

Read above. He says Two D4 12" Dcons.

He could order two single 4s.That way he could give 200rms per sub with the sax125.2 or 250rms with the aq750.

A pair of D4's and run the SAX-125.2 in 4 ohm mono.
