if your gonna go with re for spl/sq my reccomendation is the sx especially if you want to compete. the sx is loud but at the same time retains a decent amout of sq. Diamond D3's are great for spl and are great sq subs also.

Well... for now i wanna use a stock alt..... so i am going to have to keep the wattage at around 1000rms or less. Eclipse's are only 750 rms and i saw a chart that showed the spl curve (i think.... i dont know too much about that stuff yet) and they were right up there with the 12w7.
I could run an SX... it would be cheaper than an Eclipse TI but dont know if it compares in how loud it is.
A Diamond D9 is more expensive that both of those, around 400, but again.... i dont know if being more expensive it would be louder or not..... but i could get two Diamond d6's, 350 for two. I read somewhere that someone did like a 150 with two d6's but had like 2000rms on each and the voice coils melted or something??
Another question... anyone ever use Dayton Titanic MKIII. Someone told me out of what i was first looking at that they would prolly be the best.

nah i second joeys remarks but theose woofers are based more tword sq rather than spl. if he wants a bravox sub look at the edx that thing is a beast

Which line/model. The shop where I work on the truck at is dropping Audison and Tru for Bravox and Arc. Offered me great deals. I can't find anyone who uses Bravox though. I just know they do a lot of OEM for other manufacturers. I know their UXP12 (or maybe 10) only tested fair.

the uxp is an ok sub the but exs is really nice! i used bravox and the comps are pretty nice especially the kevlars. the silvers are really nice for there low price tag. the diamonds are nice also. the subs are good and even there coaxials are good.

the uxp is there bottom line sub i believe. I have an exs 12 in my truck. in small sealed it does well, good for sq but not great on low frequencies. in big ported it rox!! I think for the money its competitive with anything out there on low end sql. but bill is right, this is a great sq sub. IMO!
EDIT: I am going to try the BVX probably this fall

hey... its alright. It just gave me another company that you guys think is pretty good to look at.
EDIT:I was just searching for bravox subs and they seem to be pretty expensive, the EDX to be specific. It was $500 on the site so i think thats out of the picture.
