Need help chosing a new subwoofer!

[AlpineAdam3 0]

I currently have an Alpine type r 15 on a kicker zx750.1. I have it in a 3.75ft net box tuned to 35 hz and it gets pretty loud and sounds decent. My choices of a new sub were a SSA Icon 15, FI SSD 15, and an AA Choas 15. The new sub would go into the same old box but now run off a T1000-1bdcp. I want to know which sub would sound better off my amp. I want it to be louder than my type R and sound good as well.

Icon but the enclosure is more important.

That is impossible to answer, and if you are looking for a large gain in output you will need more power or cone area. Also you should build or buy a new enclosure.

sorry to hi jack but can one 15 play louder than 2 12

Yes,one 15" CAN play louder than two 12's. Heck a single 10" sub can play louder than an 18". Its all dependent on enclosure. For a typical setup though, if two 12's can fit in a proper enclosure they will more than likely be louder than the single 15" as they have more cone area.
