Best 12s for SPL

[Dub7sonoma Premium Member]

Need idea for my new setup. I currently have 3 JL 12W7s in a ported box on a powerbass xta5000d. I just bought another Xta5000d to strap with the original. The new box will be a small camper shell that blows through the back window. I have approximately 13 sq ft to work with but only 12s will fit in the back window area, maybe odd sizes like the JL 13w7 (the opening is right at 14"). Just looking for ideas on 3 12s that will be the loudest in that type of setup since I can only fit 12s but have close to 10,000 watts rms to work with. And for reference Powerbass' website says 2 xta5000ds will only be 2 ohm stable when strapped, but I have heard that people have run them solo at .5 ohm. So the subs will need to be able to be wired together at around 2 ohms or close to it just to be safe. And this will be a daily driver so I will be listening to music on the setup.

The real answer is not a sub picked from thin air..

It will be the sub(s) that work best for your application and power...it will not always be the same sub that worked for someone else.
