[QUOTE="JonAdkins, post: 8770411, member: 684277"] So I'm working on my Trans Am. I have 2 "Stealth Boxes" each are 0.75ft^3 gross. And I'm debating on some subs. Got roughly 1000 watts to throw at the pair. The two subs I'm really looking at is the Sundown SD4-10 and the Image Dynamics IDQ 10. Both should easily handle the power. Conventional wisdom says the IDQs play a little lower because their EBP is 39 and the EBP of the SD4 is 43, but when I model the subs in WIN ISD this doesn't hold true. My main goals is the best average output between 30Hz and 60Hz, but I'm biased towards the 30Hz-40Hz, I like the lower bass quite a bit more. Here's the output across the 30Hz-60Hz range for both subs according to WIN ISD, feel free to double check as I could've messed up somewhere in the parameters. Sundown SD4-10 in 0.66ft^3 @ 500 watts 30Hz: 102.164db 40Hz: 106.99db 50Hz: 109.617db 60Hz: 110.664db Average: 107.36db Image Dynamics IDQ 10 in 0.68ft^3 @ 500 watts 30Hz: 99.677db 40Hz: 105.337db 50Hz: 109.52db 60Hz: 112.114db Average: 106.66db So I'm clearly leaning Sundown here. They're $320 each, while the Image Dynamics are $240, so $160 more. But that's not enough for me to warrant less performance. So with all that being said, what are some other subs I should consider taking a look at? I have about 6 inches of mounting depth to work with. [/QUOTE]
