He offered me a great deal on the bvx. Checked out the site, and they seem to be the high end drivers. But, man are they ugly
Oh. SQL subs:

oh i have already been there. I am really interested in the Brahma. I was considering a 13w6v2 or 10w7. And i am also really interested in the Eclipse TI.... all of them on the list!!
Anybody think that a 13w6v2 or 10w7 can keep up with a 15 Brahma or 15 Eclipse... all with 800-1000watts rms on them?? I saw an spl curve that showed a 12Ti and 12w7 and they were about the same. So.... bigger Ti... smaller w7.... i think i should go between the Brahma or Ti.

I think the Brahma will be the best sq/spl mix. If you're going with just one sub. The 13w6v2 if you go with a pair. Just be prepared for the absolute worst cust serv of your life. Also, hope that the Brahma doesn't come with a manufacturer's defect like mine did.

You could also look into alpine type R's too. They can get nasty loud. Jared(scarll) I forget how to spell his sn. Any way he runs a 12" type r, and is hitting 147.x Not on a TL but I'm sure if it was on a TL it would be pretty good too. I use to run some older 12" type R's and they sounded damn good. Well looks like I just added to your list :) They can take a beatin too.
Look into some image dynamics IDmax's too. Comparable to the dub7 also.

That would be a sweeeeet buy. Only thing is will 1000rms be efficient for a xxx?? I know they are 1600rms and all but with 1000rms.... would i be better off with an sx or would a xxx sound good with only that??
Ok... so i have a few choices right now.
Eclipse Titanium
Adire Brahma
Image Dynamics IDMax
Diamond D9
Either RE SX(dont know if it can compete with the others) or XXX(if i can power it)
Alpine Type X???
out of curiousity... i was just looking around and someone was selling their soundstream splx's and said that they are great spl and sq subs. I know they are spl subs but sq....??

I have limited myself to $300 for the sub because i want to get components this summer. What would have the most output out of these...
Alpine Type X 12" getting 900rms
Sound Splinter RL-p 15" gettig 600rms
RE SX 15" prolly going to get 800rms because of its coil config
Adire Arsenal 15" getting prolly 800rms
I havent heard many subs and its kinda hard to hear some of these higher end brands around where i live so i am going off of all input

SPL=SX
SQ=All others.
The SX should get louder then them all as it's more geared towards SPL, but the others you can still get them loud, and will sound great while doing it.
BTW its Ascendent Arsenal, not Adire.
But the RL-p they are way over 300 right? Around 500 or a lil more. I
