So I just picked up a new car (2001 audi a4) and have spent about the last week trying to figure out what I want to do for the stereo. I'm still not sure I'm any closer but do know I need more help then just searching can provide on sub selection.
Enclosure type, I do have a pretty large trunk but I use it often and really dont want to give up the space so I want to do custom fit sealed boxes between the wheel wells and taillights on each side due to that I'm limited to small sealed boxes.
Budget, while less is better obviously. I will save up or buy used so I can do it right the first time.
Subs I am considering
Idq thought about it originally but read some reviews that made me rethink that
Idmax would probably give me the output and quality I want but is on the larger side and more $$$
Sundown sd3 worried it wont have enough output
Sundown sa10 always wanted to try them but dont think they would run well sealed
Benchmark/expectations
I set my gf's car up with 2 10w6v2 jl's sealed at 1cu ft each running off a jl hd1200 and am really happy with how it sounds but would honestly like it to hit a little harder. These could be an option to as she wants more so I will probably end up building a ported box or getting her 12w6v2 and then I could put them in my car but in even less space I doubt I would be happy.
Why not a 12,
I'm mostly worried about not being able to provide enough airspace also in the past I have always liked 10's better. But a si sql 12 was suggested to me and I'm very intrigued by it and it's a possible contender now to.
Thanks in advance for any help I have tried searching but everything seems to wind up talking about ported. If any one has any recommended links for me to read that would be great to been slowly making my way through the sticky that has the recommended links
