did a search, still need help, sq sub suggestion

[JoeHemi57 10+ year member]

Sub will be powered by sub channel of a DLS A5 so ~800-900w depending on who you ask. Here's what i'm looking at...

Diamond D9 10D2 in recommended ported box, i believe 1.25 @ 28hz

Stereo Integrity Mag D2 12", sealed within SI specs

Arc Flatline 12" D2, sealed to ARC specs (is this sub any better than an IDMax?)

Which would get the loudest of the 3? I know they should all sound very good but i've heard the D9 may need more power even though rms on the 10" is listed at 600w on the website.

Thanks in advance for any help

Question, why not also run the Diamond sealed? Anyway, hard to argue against any of the 3. All depends on how much you could get them for/how much you are willing to spend. The Diamond in the ported will propably be louder than the other two sealed, thats just the way it is, but the same could be siad for any of these subs.

i'm leaning to the Mag but my budget is probably around $350, not sure how much they go for now.

id say the d9. very respectful woofer imo. ported low and fed 6-800 rms. very impressive

If you want pure sq check these on ebay. They get decently loud, but nothing to brag about. SQ is amazing, musical and flawless.

i'd love to have those but i'm afraid they wouldn't get loud enough for me. right now i'm running 2 10" Arsenals sealed off 800w and they get loud but don't have a lot of output down in the very low frequencies.
