you need to say what source you got that from otherwise JC can get into ****.


just because its dvc means squat. sometimes its a disadvantage, because you how the 4 ohm coils are never 4 ohm load at the amp. each system must be thought out and if a dvc is needed then go for it but its as much an advantage as disadvantage.

I picked up a nice oldschool Soundstream Rubicon SVC sub off ebay for under $30 that came in a good old prefab box, bargain! :p. Nah, it'll be moving out of home when i get around to installing my new setup.

Thanks for the lesson in basic electronics, although yuou failed to mention why a DVC sub is better, except in specific circumstances

well in my own experiance 2x subs over 1x sub pushes more air and gives you more feel with the volume where 1 will give you the volume not the feel of everything shaking around you... personally i prefer 2x woofers

just my 2c and
yes about 3db more of imaging (feel). i think theres a bit of the placebo effect happening.

DVC subs sound no different to a single voice coil sub. They have dual voice coils so you can wire them differently, that is all.
