Best sub for 3.77 Ft^3. Two 10's?

[Pyrofan]

Ok, been trying to find a sub for a awhile now. I got a 2011 F150 and im doing a center console box. Their gonna be ported. I was thinking one 12 or 2 12's but with 2 12's my box is gonna be too small and 1 12 is the same cone area as my 2 8's and i sold those cause they werent loud enough. So, what about two 10's? I got 1600watts at 1 ohm on tap. I was thinking Sa-10's but their a little high in price. Like to stay near $300 if possible. What do yall say?

Power handling and price alpine type r's. You could most likely do better if you go used. I saw someone on one of the forums selling us downs for 130 apiece.

Thats the right airspace for 2x 12"s. 12" Type Rs ported suggested ported box size is 1.25-1.5cuft per sub

On this post http://www.caraudio.com/forums/subwoofers/599941-2-12s-around-%24350.html I was told two 10's were best.

I figured yall would recommend some other brand. Kinda surprised yall said alpine.

Can someone tell me if these are gonna be the best bet. Dont wanna buy these and their be something else better.

maybe a dc level 4 15? not sure how much they run but i think they like that box size.

I myself would recommend the SA-10s. 1-1.25 Recommended airspace, but you'll be overpowering them so it'll be more than fine. I just know my 2 SA-12s on 650W a piece absolutely slam.

Can save a bunch of money and get 2 Soundqubed HDS210. 79 bucks each shipped to your door. Rated at 600, but they can take 800.

Cant run a 15. Only got 14in of width. So minus 1.5 for wood and that leaves 12.5

What about two Sa-12's? They recommend 1.5 -2 so im in the middle of that.

I honestly couldn't tell you how they'd perform in that airspace. I'm sure it'd be fine, but I'm no expert!

I'd avoid the 210s. The qt is a lil high for me if you're going ported.

I got 2 HDS210s I'm hooking up this weekend in a ported box.
