[QUOTE="dragonrage, post: 7243017, member: 574321"] Regardless of what anyone tells you, SSA does not make any SQ subs. Reason being they all use conventional motors that do not have any technology to linearize the BL curve. This may sound like mumbo jumbo to you but feel free to research into it if you like. The short of it is that they will increase their distortion quickly as you turn up the volume because the amount of force exhibited on the voice coil by the motor (magnet assembly) is varying wildly with excursion. That said, for a conventional motor, they are definitely not the worst sounding. They are NOT one-note boomers. They will sound okay at best. For your situation, I recommend the Dayton Reference series. It is a bit better than the IDQ in SQ for less money.
