[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8854176, member: 614752"] I'm a bit iffy about the Orions. They use a 4" coil but it is very anemic compared to the 4" coils used by the parts bin """brands""". Also recones are proprietary and you may or may not be able to get any if and when you break things and need to replace parts. Otherwise everything else you listed is made at the same factory out of the same parts more or less so they'll likely all get you the same place. Pick whichever one you like the logo best or whichever company/retailer you feel gives you the best customer service. I would also say that while we can probably get a coil to hold the heat from a 2500W amp you're well at the point there where you can mechanically break a 12" woofer throwing that kind of power at it. You will want to make sure you use subsonic filter and still keep an eye on making sure you're not pushing your sub beyond mechanical limits. [/QUOTE]
