Posted July 27, 200916 yr I've been curious about the Xcons for a while now. How much louder are they than the Icons? Would an Xcon 12 in a 2 -3 cube ported tuned to 33hz powered by a Sundown 1500D be louder than an Icon 15 ported in about 4.5 cubes tuned to 33hz powered by a Sundown 1000 watt amp?

Of course cone area plays a factor, install plays a huge factor and power plays a factor. I wouldn't even venture a guess on this question unless I had them both in the described setup to compare. Sorry I can't be of more help, it's just one of those questions that has an opionated answer.If budget is a factor, I would go with the ICON combo, it it's not, then go with the XCON combo. They both hit hard. I would say in my opinion that maybe the XCON will hit harder, but again, thats just my opinion and not necessaraly fact.
