Along with the cost of drivers, you have to estimate the cost of the amplifiers to power them. I know Auidobahn all seem to have a high power handling, Cerwin Vega isn't as high, but it doesnt seem to to take much to make them do their job. Look into that as well as total system cost, and the space needed to make it all work effectively.

audiobahn 1000w rms 2000w peak the subs i want are 6ohm dvc so would the 1501bd rock amp be able to push 4 of these or would the dvc cerwinvegas be better at dvc 4ohm 300w rms 800peak

125 for a Adire audio shiva, which will put both to shame.

heyh man, stay away from audiobahn, garbage i stuck up for that sh*t company when i had it, until they acted like dicks, i have the awt15X sub, 3000RMS, i put 1, memphis mc1000d on it, and it fried in one hour, box were to exact specs, 4 gauge wire, 150 amp fuse, hook up perfect, cone froze completey, called audiobahn, they told me tough luck, i bought it form a local dealer for 1300 bucks, just because i wanted the warrenty, well, what a waste of 1300 bucks, i could have bought it off ebay for 500, this is canadian by the way, which is still expensive, but thats what they cost in canada, anyways, when i called them new wave(the distributor) the warrenty called told me if i would have had a cap, the voice coil would have not fried, that was the funniest and dumbest thing i have ever heard, right there goes to show how much audiobahn knows about car audio, there company should be destroyed, worst company ever, go buy pyrmaid, last longer then sh*tbahn does, thres my expeerience with the worst pieces of car audio in my life, i hate it, and will never buy it agian, i will never reccommend it anybody wither, i hope somebosy from audiobahn sees these post, just they realize how sh*t there company is!!!!!

dont know what everyone else has to say bout CV but I have all my highs done with their stealth series and I'm very pleased. I dont know how good their subs are but I haven't ever heard of anyone who says "stay away from Cerwin Vega, they suck" so I imagin their pretty good with the subs. Audioblah screwed neon over so if your looking for a company that will honor a warranty you will want to look else where.
