Resonant Engineering HC 15"

Hi there, does anyone know anything about this sub, i tried googling it but didnt get much responses. Im thinking of purchasing this for a loud spl setup in my car. Is RE a good brand name? and will one 15" be enough to shake my car?

1 15" will do it in most cases, how much power do you have to work with? and what vehicle is it going in?

Designed to be a good SQ driver with very good low bass output. Not the best in the lanes as a true SPL only sub but for daily bumping and ground pounding a very capable driver. Yes a single HC15 with 1000-1500rms in the correct ported enclosure will easily shake the panels on your car.

Rated at 1200rms they were good for daily up to ~1500rms with no problems. Xmax was in the 25mm range. Works well in both sealed and ported enclosure's although it really did excel when ported.

Recommended enclosure's by user's including myself:

3.0@35Hz = very accurate with good SPL abilities
3.5@35Hz = very accurate with good/great SPL abilities
4.0-4.5@37Hz = excellent SPL abilities with the tradeoff of soem boominess

Use ~50sq.in. of port area.

A DD3512 is a sub that you should definitely look at if the goal is to get loud.

oh okay thanks i'll look into it, theres hardly any stores that sell SPL subs, anyone know of anywhere in the GTA? ALso, should I stay away from Resonant Engineering all together, or look for a higher model?
