My friend has one JL 1000/1 amp powering 2 12" type R's. I Would venture to guess if i had 1500 RMS powering a 15" Orion H2 in a ported box, i would easily beat him in SPL, especially becuz my car is a hatchback and his is a 4 door sedan, so my subs would bounce right off my rear window and come straight at me. For those of you who disagree with me, or feel the the SQ in that set-up would be really really horrible, i ask you....would one 12" type X be a better idea? I would only get like a 1000-1200 RMS watt amp if that was the case.
Can anyone give me a 1-10 rating on Both SPL and SQ for each of these setups?
What i do know is...
With a Sealed box you get better SQ, worse SPL With a Ported Box you get better SPL, worse SQ
Set-ups: 1 15" H2 Pealed 1 15" H2 Ported
1 12" H2 Sealed 1 12" H2 Ported
1 10" H2 Sealed 1 10" H2 Ported
1 12" Type X Sealed 1 12" Type X Ported
2 12" Type R's in Ported box
I'm just trying to find a happy medium, and still be louder than 2 12" Type R's
