Around 3000 watts to work with, I will get a little more soon. I like strokers because they have been around forever and it's pretty easy to Re-cone them around here But DD, accordingly to practically EVERYONE, is the best. Ive got an S-10 Blazer and this system is replacing my 2 Orion HCCA's. They have been good subs but I have beat them to hell for a while now and it's time for a change. So the Stroker or the 9917? Thanks a lot!

Two 15's vs a 17, both strong spl subs....I don't think the dd has a chance with both setups getting 3000 watts....The strokers should get louder, and will have better sq...

i dont understand how everyone says that the dd17" will have no chance in sq.... have u heard it? i sure as hell havent!
regarless id still go with the 2 15" strokers but i think u guys may be basing what u say on hearsay.

The 9917 is a much better SQ driver than the stroker, stroker doesn't even compare.

I haven't heard the 9917, but I have heard and installed a lot of DD products as well as I currently own a Stroker 15 and have heard a pair of Stroker 18s, and I must say, I would take the 9917 over a pair of Stroker 15s any day. The DD subs I have heard installed in a proper vented box have a much more agressive sound with more impact than the Stroker, and have much more extended response. The Stroker sounds neutral and detailed, but doesn't have the displacement capabilities to really pound out the lows like DD does IMO.

Im starting to lean to the 9917 but the way everyone talks about it. It sounds like an amazing woofer.

But the 9917 would sound good right? My whole goal is to Break 150 and still have decent SQ.

9917 looks better....Id go with DD over CV anyday...just my opinion though. Plus i know lots of people that run Strokers but a few that run 9917's

well i was looking into the same thing when i had my vlx-400. i was either going with 1 9917 or the 2 strokers. i went with the strokers because i would have more displacement and they are tried and true. just because dd has new tec. does not mean the stroker are out dated they were just ahead of there time and still bring the gold home right along the other companies now. i would go with the 2 strokers over the single 17. good luck
