Posted February 4, 201213 yr I just sold my hdc3 15 and Im wanting to upgrade to either a zcon 18 or warden 21.I would be buying the zcon brand new or the warden used for around the same price. I just dont know if a warden sounds good on music. This is going in a 03 trailblazer. I have a crescendon bc2000 for now to use. If i get the warden then ill have to run it at .5 ohms because its a D1. Im going to buy a xs d3100 to add to my deka 9a31 if i go that route so my electrical will be good. So I just need to know if the warden will be good for daily?If you need more info please ask. Thanks!
February 4, 201213 yr I've never used a warden so I don't have any input on how it sounds, but don't let the size of the cone deter your opinion in regards to sq.Personally I wouldn't run any amp at 0.5, others will argue they've done it, and had no issues, but it creates a lot more heat, and I believe induces more distortion.
February 4, 201213 yr Yes it'll sound fine and will make you blink every time it hits lol. That beast is a monster. The death penalty gets stupid loud, I can't imagine a warden. You will not be dissapointed
February 4, 201213 yr Author I know that about cone area. I'm asking because in most set ups I see, theyre use for comps. Im not competing so i didnt know how good itll be on music. I dont go below 14v as it is right now with one deka 9a31.

I dont go below 14v as it is right now with one deka 9a31.Current draw will increase dramatically when switching from 1 to 0.5, just something to keep in mind.

February 4, 201213 yr realy? i do not know anything about buying a warranty through them..If you can, they better not charge anything if it needs service.
