Best bang for my buck subs?

Obsidian 12v3 needs only 2cubes ported or 1.5 cubes sealed and calls for 600watts but that aint spit on them get a dual 4ohm, wire to 2 ohm and let it beat. Pre-order one and get it for 123.00+shipping. they are heavy so shipping ***** and like i said, its a pre order meaning not in stock yet but expected sometime in April. I can not wait for my 4 12's to arrive! only downfall to me is i really dont like the yellow signature on the dustcap. I will be painting over with red. they should have color options like DD does.
but i want my bass now :p

 
its the 3rd gen mine is an 06 (first year of the nc) amazing car btw :p trunk is not bad at all definitely enough for clothes and such for a weeks vacation as long as no women are brought along lmao

 
Yea it should be decent ...get urself a good agm batt under the hood and do the big 3 at least
o yeah the battery is planned and most likely a small xs power battery in the back also just hoping i can avoid a h/o alternator haha but if needed ill have to!

 
would you say you wished you would have gotten the 310s? or is that adequate? im driving a small convertible car so am feeling if i get the higher power handling that ill be able to feel it with top down to... my current setup sounds decent sitting at idle but when driving it gets a little drowned out i guess by the road noise i can still hear it and still enjoy it but i just cant feel it anymore and that with the top up i want to be able to cruise top down this summer and feel my bass doesnt need to be chest crushing but enough lol
I love them. They're quite a bit louder when I put the rear seats down. And theyll be even louder after i get a car where i can fit a proper size box for them. My box is only 2.2 cubes, i wanted 3.5-4 but i needed to save room for stroller. The main reason I went for the 210s is money. I didn't have to do any electrical upgrades pushing 1200 watts.

 
Should look into Tantric Sounds. I believe the HD series is around that price point.
they are for one... which im sure sounds great but im just not sure a single tantric hd 12 would produce as much spl as 2 of the hdc310s... though i could very easily be wrong

see i cant fold seats down :p any noise i hear has to come from the trunk with no real escape into the car though i was planning on getting a custom box built to hold my 2 10s (if i decide on the 10s over a single 12) and my amps while being ported into the only to possible passages into my cab... so i feel maybe ill spend the little extra $ and MAKE SURE i can feel it because you can never have to much right? haha

Ah, well two MD10's would be sick too. TFade has won a few comps with MD's.

 
see ive never used sundown but ive heard they are great the only thing that pushes me off of them a little is i REALLY like the 1200 watt rms rating that is on the soundqubed subs... i just feel like they will hit MUCH harder because of that but im not actually sure at all
I may be abit biased because I run sundown gear but the sa's are very underrated. 1k really gets them moving. Customer service is also top notch. When I was building the box for mines, I was test fitting them on the face, and when I pulled the sub out, it hit the table and broke off the push terminals on one side, contacted sundown and had new little push terminals in the mail a week later, no questions asked.

So 2 sa10s are out of my price range but i could probably swing the sds... Now trying to be as unbiased as possible the sds vs the hds10 and maybe even vs 1 hdc12 or 1 sa12?
