Sub classes

[fuji6]

Here is something that's I never really gotten a clear answer on. What's the advantage of a really high end sub that handles huge power ect. vs. like a middle level sub.

(not sure if this is good example but, here goes)
Let's say you have 2 12W0's vs. 1 12W3 (given the the propper power).

Are you paying more for better sq or spl or both?
Like could you save space by having like 1 eclipse ti or w7 over 2 lesser subs like perfects and still get the same output and sq.

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Sometimes it can be sixes. Other times a higher end sub will have a better sound and with today's huge SPL subs the higher end subs definatly have more output. Sometimes if space is a concern 1 12 w3 may be a better choice than 2 12w0s (just an example). It all depends on what strikes you fancy what type of vehilce and what equipment you decide to use.

Hey thanks for the reply on that one. It's been buggin me for a while, because I keep hearing all the hype about w7's eclipse ti ect... Could you give me an example comparing one of thoese to some middle level subs?
Thanks again.

here you go.... 1 12w7=193.29 cubic inches of air displacement
2 12w6's=145.2 cubic inches of air displacement
so 1 12w7 will out spl 2 12w6's!!!
