Gold Member Username: Snarl2004Audioque 12 SD2.5s, Earthquake P... Post Number: 1831 Registered: Dec-06 | Sometime in the future im going to upgrade my HT system. Im looking for a 15" sub. The amp i have at the moment is 500rms at 4ohms. I may upgrade to a 1000rms amp at 4ohms depending on what sub i decide to get. So i need a sub that plays at 500 or 1000rms at 4ohms. Good SQ. Gets loud. And gets very low thats what i want the most. Also needs to be efficient. opinions...? |

Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3813 Registered: Jan-05 | um last i knew you had to go through AA to get recones. but since its xbl motor im sure re or fi could recone it but the TS specs would probally change, and paul there not really that hard to find there on ebay once and a great while and if you look on forums theer useally one every now and again. |

Gold Member Username: Snarl2004Audioque 12 SD2.5s, Earthquake P... Post Number: 1834 Registered: Dec-06 | Ok ive got another problem. They only came in DVC4ohm correct? Well for HT all plate amps are 4ohms so i need to get it reconed do dvc2ohm. So if i was to find a motor should i email FI, RE or AA about a recone and what kind of soft parts should i use? And if it got reconed it wouldnt change the fs correct? |

Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3831 Registered: Jan-05 | the ava only came in dvc2, and it would depend on who reconed it if the FS would change, mainly due to the moving mass of the cone, but if your getting it reconed you can make it any VC you want. or you could do what chauncey said, that dayton is just like the ava, but i still sy the ava would be better. |

Platinum Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 13106 Registered: Jul-05 | of course the ava is better...but the dayton is a great sub...no doubt But I bet u will never see anyone say anything about the dayton |
|
Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3834 Registered: Jan-05 | never said the dayton was bad, just the ava is better, LOL the dayton would make a great HT sub, but don't they only come in dvc4? |
