I have 2400 watts rms available and a big trunk, I build my own boxes (very well I might add) and I can't decide between the soundqubed hds300 series 12's or the american bass xfl 12's Im going to be running 2, the price difference isn't much so I just want to know if anyone has experience with either of these. thanks

Have experience with soundqubed HDS300 - it's great. I think american bass amps are pretty much the same as SQ amps, not sure whether this holds for the subs. I'm pretty sure both are great subs. I'd go with SQ just because I've gotten plenty of stuff from them.

Many people claim that HDS series can't take too much above rated unlike HDC series the XFL series will take 1500 or more each easy, HDSs may need a larger box to perform best, which you like better depends on taste and setup but you'd be right both subs are pretty comparable.

Audioquest (who manufactures audio cables) sued them over the similar name.. or so I read somewhere.

both are very similar. I would suggest the xfl. I remember a year or two ago the audioque or what ever they call it now had some problems with the coil rubbing when it was over powered (like over 6kW). I dont remember exactly what it was.. or maybe i have the two mixed up. I guess you will be playing music not burping anyways. but either will handle that kind of power NO PROBLEM! both sound great. for trunk stuff seems like american bass has done better in the past.. but keep in mind its been a while sense i have been into comps
