Just wondering if anyone here has had any experience with either the Dayton DVC subs or the Dayton Titanic MKIII subs? Probably go with 2 15"s of either the DVC's or the Titanics. This will be for a sealed enclosure, don't have room for an IB just yet. Just looking for an opinion on them.

The DVC's:

The Titanics:

Thanks guys

I have four of the 15" Dayton DVC's now & have been very happy with there performance. I have used the DVC in several different sono's sealed & ported as well with very good results.
I have only had one problem with my first driver, the spider ripped. But Parts Express replaced it without question & this was at over a year old (they warranty them for 5)
I've never had or heard the Titanic, but it is a more well built driver. I would think as well as my DVC's have stood up that the Titanic would be a good choice as well.
Thats my .02

Its probably best to do a search on the PE Tech Talk forum. There's been a lot of talk about the DVC's and the Titanics over the years. I've actually heard a few folks say they weren't impressed with the Titanic Mk3's in terms of sound quality - a little on the boomy side. But that's all I recall. It would be worth doing a little homework.
