I've been a lurker here for a while, and i'm sorry my first post is a which is better post, but i really need some opinions.
I'm trying to decide on a sub (or two) to replace my current sub, a gr research sw-12/pr-12. The current sub just can't keep up with my mains (a custom design by selah audio using a seas W22 for the low end), but has plenty of output for me. I'm looking for maximum sound quality and have narrowed the choices to the Dayton RSS390hf or TC Sounds TC-1000 12". I'd pretty well decided on the Daytons until the recent sale on the TC Sounds muddled things a bit.
I plan to use them in a sealed enclosure (i'm not interested in ported or PR designs) of ~2.5 ft^3 and apply a LT and/or EQ. Both subs model similarly in WinISD and have roughly the same excursion limited max output below ~30 Hz. I'll be using the rythmik audio A350 plate amp (350W RMS) and the room is an L shape, ~17' x 11' (small part of the L where the stereo resides) and 10' x 20' for the other part of the L.
From what i've read, the Dayton has the upper hand for upper bass, but the TC is better down low. So, my question for those that have experience with the two: which is the more musical subwoofer?
