    Would you say the U-series are tighter and punchier compared to the X series? I listen to a lot of metal and like deep accurate fast kick drums.

      Sundown Audio unofficial sorry man I just don’t know that much. I saw the 7500s but I just assumed it was a 12 volt system. Idk how you would get 200 volts from that.

    • @UnofficialAudio
      @UnofficialAudio  6 років тому

      Its output voltage. Amplifiers run on 12v DC input but put out AC voltage and current. Thats the AC voltage output from the two amps strapped together.

      Doubling your power is suppose to net you a 3db gain. But there will be losses due to efficiency of everything. Very impressive for that sub to hold that kind of power. I wonder how many times you could throw 18k at it before failure occurs?

    • @UnofficialAudio
      @UnofficialAudio  6 років тому +1

      I wouldn't say the X is better but its different. The U will be louder for most spl installs but the X will "smash the lows" better. Not that the U won't play low. The X will just do it better. Two completely different sounds.

      Port frequency lets the port do most of the "work", so woofer excursion is less at that frequency. Then you can send WAY more power to the woofer at that frequency. If they did that same test 10 hz lower that woofer would have been destroyed.

      ratings are just a recommendation. really u can burn most subs out under rated power if you play them constantly for long enough. and you can also play most subs over rated power if you keep it short. mechanical power handling and the frequencies being played have a role as well.
