For my needs, which sub seems better. 187 / SDC2.5

[Moofs 10+ year member]

So I'm stuck between two 12 inch subs. An IA 187 or an audioque SDC2.5.

I listen to mostly indie music and some rap. I dont go past normal listening levels often. I just want a sub that will sound good and be able to play lows decently well.

I'm coming from a 50$ pioneer 12 tsw303R running off 250rms in a prefab. So I know I'll be impressed either way. But will one really be that much better than the other?

Reason I ask is there is about 30$ difference after shipping and everything and that can buy me speaker wire.

Plus, I plan on running this on the stock electrical system and one is a 300rms sub and one is a 600rms sub. So thats double the power. I dont want my lights dimming etc. Idk how much more power draw the SDC will take but if its a lot I guess I'll pass on it.
