Hey Chris, what amp do you plan on putting on the sub? The newer single spyder Alpha is VERY musical and built with SQ in mind but gets pretty loud.

ive had aq subs and now have a 9515. the aq and dd subs sound very similar exept the 9515 gets much louder. i personaly like the say they sound.

i know people will probly disagree with me but i also believe that 1500rms isnt enough power for a 9515. im giving mine 2800 without and issues. i wouldnt give a 9515 anything less then 2000 but thats just me.

Also wanna know how 1 15" RDAlpha would compare to 2 12" AQ SDC2.5 giving about 1250.1-1500rms watts which would get louder and sound better and hit deeper?
