2 10" w6's will pound pretty hard with decent s/q for rock and metal. A friend has those they sounded real nice with metalica and stuff of that nature, not my type but the bass was good. He had a 500wrms memphis power refference amp running them. That amp and those subs can all be picked up off of ebay. I would go with the rainbow's though if i had the room. If Justin says there good, and rainbow has a HUGE name when it comes to S/Q, how could you go wrong, and there cheap lol.

take it from a personal Metal head.... a 15" is too sloppy.. yes there is subs like the Tempest and stuff.. it does good, but i listen to metal everyday.. screaming, riffs, fast beats...etc...etc... but do not just go with my advice but i know the boat you're in..... two 10"s or a 12" would be fine.. if you dont want loud bass but be able to feel the kick and still be able to listen to some rap and "feel it" too and be heard(if that matters)... two W6's would be awesome too.... but it is really up to you... i have two 10"s, each is gettin around 150rms... and it does just fine.. but two W3's would still be killer... or a 12" W6.. as i said its up to you though.... the other brands are good brands, so check into them, im just going by what subs i have personally heard on metal..

*cough* Rainbows *cough*
If I had the moolah right now I'd drop it on those subs so quick it would make my head spin.

Power handling is meaningless when looking between subs. You just need to power each sub *correctly*

Say both subs are totally identical except sub A requires 5000 WRMS where sub B requires 100 WRMS

Powered with the required RMS both subs will yield the same dB.

BTW Rainbows are world renowned for their superior SQ.

But that is given only if all other variables are the same.
