Best 10" SQ Sub under $300 ?

[Mixman Premium Member]

I want a good sub for mainly SQ and a little SPL. I came doen to three subs :

JL Audio 10W6V2

Infinity Kappa Perfect 10VQ

Elemental Design 11OV2

Which of these will have the tightest bass with the most impact ? I will be using it with a JL 500/1 amp.

Ok.....I just came back from a car audio shop. A box in my trunk is gonna kill a lot of space and this will be a family car. I am going to need a freeair sub for my setup to fit in the space where my factory sub is located. I think that knocks out the 10W6V2, unless an expensive custom box is built under the deck to house the sub.

How good do freeair subs sound ? What's the best 10" freeair ?

Diamond D6.

Will the Diamond work as a freeair sub ?

not that i knew.

the IDQ is one of the best freeairs. but the IDMax will do it too.

Will a IDMax work well with a JL 500/1 ? How heavy is it ? I need to know if it is too heavy for my back deck.
