A good 10" sub??

[kkpsiguy 10+ year member]

I got a guy that I work with that is wanting to put a sub and amp in his truck. Its going in a Dodge Ram Rumble Bee( nice truck in my opinion by the way). He is wanting a 10" sub by the way. He dont think a 12" will fit.

Questions I know your gonna ask:

1) expected output.

He dont want so much bass its gonna rattle everything apart and such.

2) music likes

He listens to a lot of southern rock as he put it. I dont know what that is. But he listens to other stuff. He wants it to punch out the bass notes when he listen to rap though.

3) Budget

He said he dont have a budget. Basically he tells his dad he needs so much money and gets it.

What I thought about was trying to get him a Fi Q 10" or maybe a Fi SSD?? I dont really know what to recommend to him. I've seen a lot of people on here that are liking the Fi Q, thats why I told him about it.

Anyways....I would appreciate ya'll input and help on this matter. I dont think there is a time constraint on this either.

Does he have an amp to power this 10 already or is he going to get that second?

 

[kkpsiguy 10+ year member]

He doesnt have an amp yet. And by the way....he does not want a DD. He dont think they are musical, he thinks they are for spl only. Tried to convience him other wise but he wouldnt listen.

And he wants to buy brand new also.

Nah I wasn't going to get him to buy mine, he can't handle it. Lawl

I would say a 10" Q would be good. I'm trying to think of some other solid 10s, but honestly I can't think of anything. He doesn't want any DD. RE SX's wouldn't have enough sq, RE XXX 10 doesn't exist. RE SE 10 would work, but it's only 600 rms. Maybe something else like JL or Alpine, maybe a Type X?

how about a 10w6v2?

 

[ArrizX 10+ year member]

w6 sounds good.

that or just a type r or something brand name that he would know any approve of.

maybe a rockford fosgate power series.

We need to try to keep the mounting depth to around 6 - 6 1/2". He's working with a single cab.

How about an RSd10 or RSd12 (both available in 4 ohms svc or dvc with 500-800w rms on it? Should do very nicely in a smaller sealed enclosure.

RSd12

I've never had any experience on this one. What is your take on it?? What kind of power does it need??
