hi everyone, i want to upgrade my current subs into something with more SPL, and SQ if possible

OVERVIEW:

-2 12" pioneer ts-W308D4 rated 400 wrms per-sub

-Hifonics BXI-1210D, 1 ohm load to subs, so subs are seeing 1200 wrms, 600 wrms per sub

-both subs are in a ported box that looks like this Dual ported sub box

so which set of subs should i get that can actually take 600 wrms per sub? Starting from budget subs to higher grade?

if i bought 2 kicker 08 CVR 15" to use for my amp, would my setup be louder and deeper than my 2 12"s?

thanks for the feedback everyone

What is your budget on subs, how much room for an enclosure do you have?

sundown audio sa-12's would take 600watts perfectly.

well my budget on a pair of subs either 2 12"s or 2 15"s is $200-$350

i started off with pioneer budget woofers, what would be the next step up? kickers? Sundown? RE? FI? DD?

lets just say i have adequate room. My car is a 1995 4 door ford explorer, so i have enough room in the back for 2 12s, or budget 2 15s right?

Take your time before buying if you're not in a hurry.

Look at the Sundown sa 12, I don't remember the price.

We need to know the available room in your box, the box tuning.

If you can build a box, try a single 15" : it could be cheaper than 2 12"s.

Remember you did not give us any budget !!!

As for the tuning of my box, i currently dont know what it is, i can give you measurements, length width, height, etc. my original post at the top has a link to a pic of my box.

As for budget, like i said, im willing to spend around 200-350 dollars for subwoofer, if i buy 15"s im going to have to spend money on a box aswell

SSA DCON Series

Sundown SA-12 is a great woofer with great sq and get's loud.

Incriminator Audio - 187 Series

Alot of choices in the SSA store .... Take a look and then look over the free enclosure plans.

is that 200-350 a sub?

well sa-12's are $190 a piece so your looking at $380 for 2 sa-12's

you could also get 2 ssa dcon 12" for $250 total

or a single ssa icon 15" for $300

then you gotta get a box made or make one for that matter.
