ok sorry for the title, but I couldnt think of one, but yeah the question, I am planning on getting my first system soon, and I was wondering if you think 1000rms is to much, I either want 2 10" diamond D6's with 500rms each or a single 15" D6 on 600 rms, and what I am wondering is will the 400wt difference be big or should I just go for the 1000rms system???
with almost double the power there will definately be a difference ....also 2 10's have more surface area than one 15. I'm going to bed now, maybe someone will give you more of an answer
You'll need either a 2 ohm stable or a 1 ohm stable depending on how you wire them up.
Specs on the 10's are D6 10" Subwoofer
Hard Annodized Alloy Cone and Dust Cap EPDM "Omega" Surrounds Cast Alloy Aluminum Basket Dual Mirror Image Flat Spiders Isolated Heavy Duty Lead Wired Intercooled Motor Design with Vented Pole Piece Ferrite Magnet Available with Dual 2 ohm or Dual 4 ohm 3" Extended Voice Coils
Power Handling NOM/MAX: 500/1000 Watts Sensitivity (2.83V/1m): 84 dB SPL Freq. Response: 23-250 Hz Mounting Depth: 6.2 in. Diameter: 9.2 in.
Specs on the 15 are Hard Annodized Alloy Cone and Dust Cap EPDM "Omega" Surrounds Cast Alloy Aluminum Basket Dual Mirror Image Flat Spiders Isolated Heavy Duty Lead Wired Intercooled Motor Design with Vented Pole Piece Ferrite Magnet Available with Dual 2 ohm or Dual 4 ohm 3" Extended Voice Coils
Power Handling NOM/MAX: 750/1500 Watts Sensitivity (2.83V/1m): 87 dB SPL Freq. Response: 20-250 Hz Mounting Depth: 7.4 in. Diameter: 13.9 in. so unless diamond audio's quality has dropped in the last couple of years, you would be seriously underpowering the 15.
And depending on which amp u r using, u could be underpowering the 10's.
I plan on using a sae1000D to power either, I'll either wire the 10"s(dual 4) in parallel to get 1 ohm or with the 15" wire it to 2 ohms and get 600rms, and killa that was my exact thoughs last night lol, I would but then i would need to get a saz1500D and thats a bit more then the other, but if I could get the 1500 for around the same price I'd do it
