Hello
I am writing in regaurds to my 19 yr old son! He has a 1995 olds Cutlass Ciera 4 door with a back seat that will not lay down!! I know my son is more of an SPL type of guy you could say, maybe 70/30 SPL over SQ, but here's where we sit? We have a Pioneer HU with a .5 ohm stable Lanzar Opti2000d we were going to maybe go with a sub 300 or under! I thought a 15 would hit a little harder but with the amp we have a single 15 dvc 2x2 won't go to .5 I don't think! 2 -12" optidrives will wire down to .5 and they sound good, we have heard a set before in my car! So, with a trunk set-up will a single 15 hit harder than the 12's???? Thanks, always enjoy your comments! Ps. I had a guy going to sell me a MT RE 15 for 380 shipped on ebay, but you know how that works? I have also ran accross a 15" L7 DVC 2X2 250.00 WITH A 4.0cu ENCLOSER! And a BL 15 FOR UNDER 300! remember he likes SPL so besides getting a new car what can we do??????? HELP!!
15 OR 12X2 |

"PLEASE TAKE 1 OFF NARRATOR"
we have a forum narrator? lmao
2 12's would be more sufficient due to cone area. i'm running 1 15" now from my single 18" and am kind of disappointed... the 15" is much more capable than my 18" was btw |

Here is more along the lines of what your looking for. A audioque hdc 15 dual 1 ohm these subs are rated 1000 rms but can take about 1300 rms easy and will get loud with a 40 hz tune. They are made for that kind of tune but will get lower than that by design. I saw one of these hit 141.9 db on 1000 watts daily tuned. You would set your amp gain with a digital multimeter for the 1300 watts. Go with 4 cubic feet after sub and port tuned to 40 hz. And give the sub 64 cubic inches of port.

Also need to ask yourself do you really want to run any Lanzar at .5ohm daily? Probably not. Polo.. |

Two 12"s has the potential to be louder, due to more cone area. |
