choosing good 12" 500wrms subs

[lotx 10+ year member]

so i had 2 12" type R's powered on a soundstream dtr1.900d for a while and i really liked them but they got stolen, box and all. but i still have the amp, and im running 4 gauge power and ground. so now ive done more research and i am planning to get some higher quality 500wrms 12" subs. i was think about the ascendant audio arsenal 12" and the digital designs 1500 12" but i have no idea how much they cost and don't know if they got good SQ. i like em to be loud, but i also really like SQ.

so if more experienced ppl shed some light that would be sweet.

just looking to try something different?

how much space do you have in your vehicle for subs?

shiva x2

i have two polk audio MM 10s, i love the SQ they have. i tried stuff like DC, FI, always went back to my polks. ported they did 135.4 db, which isnt bad for a beginner ported box, and a daily driver setup.

so i would say check out the polk MM 12s, will be louder, will love the 900 watts(i send 870 rms to my 10s rated for 350 each, the 12s are rated for 425 each), and will have good SQ.

u could run shiva x2 as well, will be great

but if u choose any of the above, u would be better off running a single 15, with 900 watts imho
