Bronze Member Username: GfblPost Number: 41 Registered: Oct-06 | Hey guys. Thinking of maybe getting a new sub. These are the options. I want something that will play low bass and keep up with quick bass notes. I will be putting the sub sealed in about 2.5 to 3.0 cu ft enclosure. I have been advised not to go with the DD as it is more spl than sq? Please advise. |

Silver Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 679 Registered: Jul-06 | ^^^^^ I believe that, the 25 series is the cleanest sounding DD sub. That would be ok in a sealed box, but you really want a ported box for DD's more powerful subs (35, 95, etc.) |

Bronze Member Username: GfblPost Number: 44 Registered: Oct-06 | i hear you. remember i might get the zappie 9.0. those only come 2 or 4 ohms. I ll take the 2 ohm one because the subs i listed above come like that.The 4 ohms one would work with the SX but i dont know if tany of the subs above come in 4 ohm version |

Silver Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 517 Registered: Nov-04 | Can I help you pull that trigger?!?! lol |
|
Bronze Member Username: GfblPost Number: 46 Registered: Oct-06 | it is a heavy trigger to pull.lol. I think though that the choice is between the XXX and the LMs. i would love to get some video footage of both in action. I will continue to try and get demos of both and see how they each perform |
