Any Good 10"sub recommendation for small 125W x 2 RMS amp?

[joshbaptiste]

I have a 5 channel soundstream which outputs 125W x 2 on the sub channel. But is seems every 10" speaker mentioned can do 500W RMS + , are there any ok (non Boss/Pyriamid etc..) that will sound decent with 125 watts RMS?

if its 125 x2 then bridge the channels to get 250wrms. Look at the Infinity Reference series or Boston Acoustic G1 series. The g1s will easily take 2x what they are rated for but dont get very loud sealed, but it takes very little power to get them going in a ported box.

FWIW I've been astounded with what my 10" DCON can do with a very underrated 100W.

Wait - if the sub channel is 125 x 2, you have three other channels for... three speakers??

I am running a JL 10w3 on 200 watts and even though the sub works good on lower power it def needs more

I ran a DD 3515 on 200watts for months, and it was pretty **** loud lol. So I'll suggest a 3510, and you can always upgrade power //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Can you explain what does 125 x 2 mean? You have two 125 watt RMS channels or is it 125watt into 2ohm load or what? The later seems a little low given that it's running at 2ohms.

Anyways. I assume that you will be hooking up to the sub channel running at 2ohms. I second the recommendation of Infinity References. They're cheap, with decent SQ, and they're very efficient subs. If you want more output, get two of them. This will buy you 3dB of output. So effectively, two on your power will sound the same as one running on twice as much power.
