Im stuck here in trying to make my choice. I finally got an enclosure for 3 15's. Right now i am running 2 15 inch Eclipse 88150 4 ohm dvc subs. I'm running them off a jbl 1200.bp 1 amp. Im happy with it cause its loud and clear, but im always trying to get more bass. So i had a new box made for three 15's. Now i can get the one 88150 4 ohm sub for 350. The problem is im not trying to be cheap but im curious because i once had 4 kicker compvrs 12's and they hit hard. Im thinking of getting three of the 2005 kicker compvr 15's 4 ohm dvc's. My question is what will be louder and sound better? Im assuming the Eclipse because the one sub cost 350 and the three kicker compvr 15's cause 350.75 all together and i know you get what you pay for but kicker has been a good brand thru out the years with high sound levels. Now i wll be running the kickers or if i get the Extra Eclipse at 2.67 ohms. So the amp can easy handle the load with no problems. Now the choice is what will be louder and cleaner, yes i would like to have both so let me know what your choices will be. thanks

So i should just buy another eclipse sub? I

m already leaning towards it cause im happy with the eclipse subs.

Thanks, so its a bet that the 3 15's eclipse will sound better and be louder then 3 15 inch kickers.
