Posted November 3, 201014 yr Would three 10" Dcons be comparable to 1 15" Icon.Both with a Sundown sax1200, in a 3.5 cu box
November 3, 201014 yr I could be totally wrong but I believe 3-10s would sound louder because it has more air movement... But the motor is obviously stronger on the Icon.. Might be a little louder with the 3-10s.. Are you porting the enclosure??
November 3, 201014 yr Admin Let's start over. What are your goals and space limitations? We know the amp.
November 3, 201014 yr Author I have a Mazda tribute SUV havent taken any real measurements but Im trying to stay under 5 cu total.This will be a daily driver. I want lows but not a ton of SPL. I dont plan to throw more the 1500W into this system since its my first.
November 3, 201014 yr Admin Ok, 3 Dcon 10D4's will give you a 2.67 load, or 3 Dcon 10S4's will give you an even 1ohm load. 3.5-4 cubes, after port displacement, will be good for the Dcon's and the power will be good if you set the gains correctly.
November 3, 201014 yr Admin Thanks I appreciate the input.. Hopefully I can start this built SOONNo problem. Ask if you have any more questions.
November 8, 201014 yr If you haven't already purchased the 1500D then, If I were in your shoes, I would save a little cash and pick up one of the smaller Sundown mono blocks for a little less cash. A little overhead is never a bad thing as long as your gains are set correctly, but saving money is never bad as well. I would also go with the 3 10's ported. Good luck!Colby
