12" sub in a smaller box or 10" sub in a bigger box?

[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8579633, member: 614752"] Yes, smaller sub in proper box will win almost every time (always for what you're trying to do). Do look into the Dayton. If you care about SQ alone you can use virtually ANY sub, build the appropriate box, and use EQ to make it sound just the way you like. 100$ sub + 400$ worth of EQ will outshine a 500$ snobophile brand sub with no EQ, and in fact you'd be hard pressed to convince me any of those elite priced subs will do anything that the Dayton or ID cannot. If you're looking for home theater type low extension and big power handling you'd want to consider LMS, split gap, split coil, or similar low distortion high excursion designs, but in the 1 to 1.5 cube net sealed space constraint you can't expect that [/QUOTE]
