Dc audio xl 15

I'm looking for a sub that can take up to 2200 watts rms @ 4ohms. The amp I have is a crown jbl bpx 2200.1. The birth sheet says it pushes 2550 rms @ 4ohms. I was looking at the Dc audio xl 15 but I'm not sure if I should get two 15s or just one. I was also looking at the dc audio level 5 15 but I'm not sure what to go with? I want it to be loud and I plan on having the sub in a ported box. Any help thanks?

an XL will generally be better on music than a Lvl 5 imo. You simply need a dual 2 ohm woofer.

The size of the woofer will depend on how much space you have. If you have lots of space you may do better with a pair of LVL 3 15s in dual 1 or dual 4.

Whereas if you're hardup for space you could always run a single XL 12.

But there are many many other woofers that will handle that power.

DD 9500, DD 9900, Fi, Sundown, IA, etc

Speaking from experience, the LVL 4, the XL and the LVL 5 are all great subs. You also have a nice amp. Personally would do the XL. Sounds as good as the LVL 4 but louder. Level 5 is hard to say. When I had it, my power supply wasn't the best so don't wanna comment on it's performance as it wouldn't be fair. Was completely disappointed with anything below the LVL4.

Make sure you get the right impedence coils...either dual 4 or dual 1 will work for you with that amp.
Also a terrific upgrade to the level 4s thats well worth the money is to order them with level 5 coils which will get them really wangin.
