A good subwoofer for sq

duals, boss, and pyle are the best for sq.... sony is probably the best for spl.. If I were you I would get a 15" boss and a 10" pyle. Then get a kicker warhorse... All you need to do for electrical is to get a hybrid capacitor... prolly fifty farad or so. Oh yeah and neons make subs louder imo...
Troll? or Idiot?

 
I just picked up a couple Focal 13's from the classifieds here. Never had em' but from reading the reviews and listening to people I can't wait! And yes. These are some SQ subs.....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
Had a Fi Q12 myself. Not terrible, but I wouldn't recommend it for SQ at all. WAY overrated sound, IMO. Though it does get impressively loud.

Some subs with good SQ in no particular order:

Peerless XLS/XXLS

CDT QES-*

Focal anything

Dynaudio anything

Morel anything

JL W6 (and W7 isn't bad)

Exodus Shiva/Tempest X[2]

Acoustic Elegance / Lambda / Stryke anything

CSS SDX* (10"... 15" is supposed to be coming back)

Stereo Integrity Mag / BM (hard to find, though there may eventually be more made... keeps getting delayed)

Dayton Reference

JBL WGTi isn't bad (I'd call it a slightly better version of a JL W7)

TC Sounds Epic (and similar - they've had about a million variants over the years)

TC Sounds LMS 5400/Ultra - Relatively high inductance but the LMS technology does help keep the BL curve pretty nice

IA Flatlyne (underhung voice coil, which is good... but I won't support that company)

IDQ (similar to Dayton Reference, actually... IDMAX is decent as well)

Arc Audio Flatline = IDMax with a flat cone

Arc Audio ARC = ID (or was it IDQ..?) - ID is okay as well. Not sure I would call it "SQ" but I wouldn't say it's far off.

Aurasound NS-10 or higher (i.e. larger; they use the NS marker for midbass/midrange speakers as well and those vary in quality; some are crappy. The large woofers/subwoofers rock.)

etc...
