Subwoofer Decision

Recommended Posts

Okay, I drive a 1981 Ford Crown Vic, and I have a huge trunk. I am wanting to upgrade my Digital Designs 2515a to something a bit louder. I have 1200 RMS @ 2 ohms I can give one of these b!tches. It will go in a big a$$ ported box, size is not an issue. I love my Digital Designs 2515A, it is sexy and pretty loud, I am just wanting something a bit better now. Right now my DD2515a is in 4.26 cubic ft. [Tuned to 36 hz 65.875 Square Inches port

Will be powered by two Directed 750d Strapped [1200 @ 2 ohm] I may upgrade soon, I am wondering how much would be a fair price to sell these for on eBay, one is in kind of rough physical shape though. I am thinking something around 1500 watts or 2000.

Sound Splinter RL-P18

Digital Designs DD3515D [i really liked my 2515a subwoofer] I don't even know price of this woofer?

Elemental Designs 13Av.2 [Kind of skeptical on this, and I want a 15" instead of a 12", this sub doesn't look to bad, but eD has pretty chitty business practices from what I have heard. Besides it doesn't really stack up w/ some of these subs]

TC Sounds 15" TC-2000

Fi BL15

throw Audio Que on the list too.

For the enclosure I can give it about 10 cubes max in the trunk and still be able to mount my spare tire :)

Unsure if I want to go down to a crazy low tune (29-30) or if I want to put it up about 35. I know the RL-P18 is said to be great in big ass vented enclosures w/ low tunes.

Sound deadened everything almost, 1 door is left along with the roof. eDead/Second Skin Sludge combo. 5 layers of eDead in the trunk w/ a thickass layer of Sludge over the top. Floors inside the car have 2 layers of eDead. I need to get some more sludge or spectrum spray.

I've dealt with eD several times and never had problem once, all of the guys there have been super helpful. The 13av.2 is going to be a sick sub for sure, but it is geared toward LSQ (leaning towards SQ). You would be better off with a 19ov.2 if you want to get really loud. Any of the mentioned subs would be fine though.

Hell, you might as well go with more drivers with that kind of airspace, would be a waste not to.

Over those listed the RL-p has the cone advantage, but it is not intended to be an all out SPL driver. The Fi BL can get loud, I have seen one do it. If you have space for a pair of BL 15's that might be the best choice.
