Please Help Me By Picking a Sub

First topic message reminder :

I'm looking for a daily sub with sound quality and the occasional hair trick, that will sound good whether it's Lil' Wayne, Rob Zombie, or Pink Floyd. Many have recommended 2- 15's , and some say 3- 12", what's your call? Thanks!

1) Digital Designs 9500 series
2) DC Audio XL or Level 5
3) FI BTL-N212
4) RE XXX
5) RIVAL 12.22
6) RD Audio Elite or Alpha
7) T3 T.2000

That's it. Back in the day them things were the shiznit

there good subs but not on the cheap side... if i remember correctly even the hyper series are over 700 bucks for a 15''

Hey Fish, Alan, Huff, Kenny, or anyone else in the know, I'm thinking bout having a daily setup, and a spl setup and wondering if I get these DC level 5's from Huff & then get some RD Alphas, which would be your recommended subs for competition. I'll get into the more difficult comp questions later. That's not a dumb question is it? Hell, idk.

If it was me I would just get RD HW's because I can tell you will be adding a amp soon! Lol
I would still get the alfa's. Mr bashfull will sell you his.

Alphas abd lvl5 are much different from each other. The lvl5 is alot more woofer. If they fit your budget and you think youll like them, then go with them. Unless your going to build 2 enclosures then switching woofers for comps isnt going to do much. Yoi should see 150+ from 2 15s and a d9 @.5ohm with a 35hz tuned music enclosure. Low 50s dont sound great compared to what our SPL setups do. But my box that does 54s off a d9 dont even think about playing music

I didnt think spl setups would have better sound quality, because of being tuned in the 50-70hz range. How do they sound when trying to produce low bass in the 20hz range?

They dont.. thats what im saying. You would need two completely different enclosures. I read it as if you planned to use the same box and just swap woofers for spl
