YukonDCXL Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Currently I am running two 3.5ks to my two xl's but I am thinking about upgrading to either a lv5 or a team. I will not be upping wattage so my question is is that enough watts to get a team for a lv 5 moving or would it be smarter to get an sp4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karkov Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 3.5k is awesome on SP4's. I feel like the teams could actually use more power. Will they take 3500 watts all day and take it, yes, will they be loud as fuck yes. Will 99.9 % of people be happy listening to Teams on 3.5k each, IMO yes. BUT if they can take more and are rated for more, just seems inefficient to run them, also, they are like 200 bucks more PER SUB over a SP4. What are you trying to gain here though? Just be louder? Or like Kyle said are the XL's not taking 3.5k nicely? Simple change of pace? I don't know much about the Level 5's but a lot of people run them and seem to like them. If there was one sub in DC's line up I would run it would be the level 5's (I do want to run them at some point in time) The views expressed in this post are of my own opinion, OPINION only.

YukonDCXL Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 My xls do take the power and are still running strong but I was just thinking of an upgrade to get louder. Kyle, you think xls will be louder then which ones? Thanks for your opinion Karkov, just wanna try something new but don't wanna waste money and not get louder. I would buy your sp4s if they were 18s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YukonDCXL Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Without making this a vs thread I'm am trying to decide between sp4, fi team or lv 5.

That's what a lot of people think... it's usually not the case though.
