I originaly had 2 15" Kicker Comps in sealed boxes each getting around 250 watts rms. The output was fairly good but the SQ was lacking. I now have 2 10" Infinity References in a ported box tuned to 35 hz and it not only hits harder than my 15's did but they also sound much much better. The 10's are seeing the same amount of power the 15's did. Just thought this would be a good example to people who are getting into car stereos.
alright. well here.. If the subwoofer is smaller and requirs the same RMS value as a larger woofer, you are obveusly going to get more out of the 10 then the 15. Tighter bass and also probobly more bass period. If you look at x X.x's and stuff, their rms is rated like 1000 +. You will obveusly hear a change then. If you had a 15inch ava, for instance, it would own the 10, the bigger you go, make sure your rms ratings also increase.
What??? That doesn't make any sence! He was giveing the 15 the recomended rms. Now he is giveing the 10 the exact same power. You should go by what the subs rms rating is, not by the size of it... I too believe the reason is because it is Kicker!:-)
yea you are right, whati meant tho, is having a bigger subwoofer isant going to increase the bass unless it has an efficiant amount of rms. giving it the right rms doesent mean its going to be loud, it just means it takes that much to make it move, but if you think about it, having a smaller ser'f area and the same amount of rms recomended wouldent you think it would out preform the 15? Faster and louder? am i wrong?
the 10's definatly sound a lot better. the 15's hada very different sound. I'm a big fan of kicker but I think that the infinities are better. the comp vr's are nice though.

Actually, I would think the 15 would have more surface arria, moving more air, resulting in more bass. Thats just my way of thinking.:-) The CVR's are nice sub's too... great sq, and spl. We have to remember that we are comparing 2 totally different subs though...
