3 ohm subwoofer and a dual 2 ohm?

what kind of amplifier(s) would i need to run a 15" concept svc 3 ohm, and a 10"  xt 104 concept dvc 2 ohms?

ok but will it have an adverse effect if i ran them both off oe one amp?

like i mean will it either blow up the amp, or possibly one of the subs?

alright...ill do that....now what do you suggest for an amp then..

if you now of a company named audison..i talked to the guy who builds them.. and he said to run a mono with 1000 watts.

what do you think?

svc 3 ohm 500 rms 1000 max 15"

i have it in a 17 by 17 by 12.75 made out of 3/4 mdf

another question?....is the box too small or too larger?

it is model cft-15( if that helps)

and it is 17*17*12 3/4

yea i was thinking that...keep the 10" and sell the 15"

which do you think would be better for alittle more than SQ like a little more bass?

This is the perfect example of an amature box builder.
Tight, Low, Clean Bass is all we are getting from our kickers!

I just prefer quality products like JL and MTX for my subs thats all. Im guessing you think infinity is high quality door speakers too huh?

Personally i would say stick with the 10". I prefer them to a 15" anyday. Ofcourse I look for sound quality and not sound pressure level. Typically, the smaller the sub, the more accurate it is going to be. Unless you fork out some big bucks for a top end 15", its going to sound sloppy.

This is a myth and is completely incorrect.  There is nothing inherently more "sloppy" or "tight" that is created by cone size.  It's all in the enclosure.

Your enclosure is on the small size for a 15" woofer at 1.5 cuft.  It could be used, however, and will sound a little boomy with peaks up around 60Hz, but it'll be OK.  I'd recomend filling it with polyfill (stuff at least a pound in) and throw about 500 watts at your CFT-15.  HERE's the specs in case you don't have them.

With most manufactures they use the same motor for the 10" 12" and 15" on a woofer of the same series. That being said, the 10" will be more accurate than the 15" because there isnt as much surface area for error. In other words, the motor will push the 15" more unevenly than the 10". Or atleast this is what I have been told time and time again by numerous credible people.

It is simply wrong.  Whoever told you this is spreading bad information.  I refer you to THIS white paper, as one source.  There are many others.

Hey no problem Jeff. Im sure you have made some pretty impressive boxes for kickers. Do you have links to pictures for them anywhere? From my personal experiences I have yet to hear a kicker I licked. Especially the square ones. I know you made a comment earlier about my amps and what not. Im not trying to revive a dead arguement. I just want to let you know what I have in my car so you can see Im not totally a noob to car audio. Ive got a MTX 1501D mono, a MTX 564 4ch, 2 x MTX 202 2ch, 2 redtop optima batteries, street wires 1/0ga, 2 x MTX 8500 12" subs, 1 MTX rt10 10" sub, 2 x  JL6W0 6" subs, focal access series 2 way component, and a set of focal polyglass 3 way components.

Ill be sure to keep my eyes open for the mistakes the ppl with stars make. That will be fun. lol
