Another VS Thread - AudioQue vs Memphis, help!

[MisterGrubbs 5,000+ posts]

Okay basically

I got .7^ft per sub to work with, sealed

I got a maximum mounting depth of 5.5"

And I got 150x2 at 4ohm, or 225x2 at 2ohms to work with amp wise

So Question is...

Memphis PR10's - 5.25"(I think it is?) Mounting depth, which gives me very little breathing room in there

vs

AudioQue LW10's - 4.75" Mounting Depth

So the question is, which one do I go with? I don't necessarily want to rattle my truck to pieces lol, so I'm trying to get a clean sound, but that gets low. It's going in an 02 Quad Cab Dodge 1500, full four door.

Also - If I were to go with the AudioQue LW12, it only has a 5.25" Mounting Depth - would .7^ft be entirely too small for that woofer? And would it play louder/as clear as the 10, even at the same power with same airspace?

Lots to answer, just answer parts of it if you're too lazy, but if possible give me all the help you can.

Thanks,

Ryan

*Note* - Keep in mind I'm poor and that two PR10's can be had at about 150 shipped vs about 220 shipped on the two AudioQues...

well i havent heard the audioques nor have i ever heard of them, but i've heard the PR series memphis's and they're pretty clean subs, im not sure if the pole vent needs more room than that but other than that its a good sub all around for the price

Man I'm just not sure, the PR's are so much cheaper lol

Thats such a small airspace.

 

[MisterGrubbs 5,000+ posts]

I know, that's why I'm hoping the PR's will do okay

.7 sealed for a 10 isnt THAT bad

Is that before driver displacement?

 

[MisterGrubbs 5,000+ posts]

Yeah, it's actually .8 before driver displacement lol, not much airspace at all, I'm almost wondering if 8's would be the route to go, but I just dont know if two 8's are going to give me what I want...
