Posted July 6, 200916 yr OK, guys. I have a about one more sub to sell and i am getting my first IA subs. Here is what i have. I am going to put about 10kw total . ( i will leave the brand out to avoid the drama of what amp is louder and if they really do that power. ) I have a Great friend selling 4 DP 18"s that i can buy, if i buy those, he is getting 4 - 18" wardens from Nick. (if nick sees this, i am sure he knows who it is.) OR for about the same price, i can pick up a pair of wardens. If i do the wardens, i might be 2-12s or 2-18s or 2-21s. if i do the 12s, its for SB2 with usaci. if i do the 18s or 21s, i am shooting for a 4th order if that works with the DPs or big wardens. so what do you guys think. i have a blow thru in my ford ranger which is why i would have to do a 4th order. this will be tuned to 35-40hz..
July 6, 200916 yr Author dont get the wardens if u plan on playing music with that tuning. I thought you can get a SPL set up or a daily coil ?
July 6, 200916 yr Author I'd probably just go with the 4 DP 18s Yeah, the wardens look bad ass but like i said, if i do those its only 2-12"S pretty hard for 2-12"s to overcome the cone area of 4-18"s with the same power. but i am also talking a difference of give or take... an 6cubic ft box vs a 28 cubic ft box..
July 6, 200916 yr dont get the wardens if u plan on playing music with that tuning.35-40 is pretty dang low tuning for a 4th order.....idf rather see it @ 46 or so.

Well you are prob. right, it will prob. still respond very well down to 40 atleast. wouldnt ya think.the malibu i built in a 4th order for 4 DP 15's responds very strong down in the high 20's,low 30's tuned to 47-48 HZso i would indeed think so.4th order isnt like a ported when it comes to playing under tuning.(that being said my box while tuned at 31, plays music down to the low 20's very strongly.23 HZ at 150.9 with the door open.on the dash.
July 9, 200916 yr I vote to buy the 4 DP's.This.More cone area = your friend in this situation. The Wardens are awesome subs, but without more power and in a more optimized box (read: comp tuning), you'd be wasting the potential of the Wardens, IMO. Sure, the Wardens can sound good, but they are meant to get as loud as possible, and with you wanting to play music on them, I'd stick with the DP's.Kef

If anyone is interested, i will post build pics on here later. I think the build will start by next monday or so.

Looks like it may turn into a walk thru instead of a blow thru. I have a lot of prep work to do so it may be a week or so before i get pics up and going guys.

I'd vote on a quartet of 40.1's Kef Well, since they are not IA brand, i will leave the name out, This is a Incriminator audio forum, i will only support IA product on here. But the amps i have are some newer amps on the market, pretty popular and will do about 4500 rms each. ( i have 2 of them) that works out to be about 2250 per DP. This is for a daily Street beater so that should work out pretty good. Edited July 16, 200916 yr by SBranger

IA or not, lots of power plus lots of cone area is a good thing.That should be a stupid loud setup, now that there's some pics, build pics and then meter vids or face the ban hammer.Kef
