help me pick new sub

[Daher2323 10+ year member]

hey guys im coming from a 12" RE audio sx off an eD Nine.1, but am looking to downgrade. Looking for something that will sound very good, but still be reasonably loud. I am making a fiberglass enclosure that will be ~1 ft^3. Either a 10" or 12" and the new amp will put out somewhere between 500-800 watts depending on sub. Budget is under $225 or so. Let me hear some suggestions

all of them would work fine in that enclosure that's why i suggested it... really personal preference. If you can't hear them all in advance choose the one you like based on appearance... LOL..

Anyway ur in Marietta, there's no shops unfortunately that carry any of that stuff

if it was me, i'd take the SE off my list and shoot for the other 3. I love Audioque... prob the BM or the SSD have the best SQ... for SQL Audioque is real nice... of course BM and SSD are loud too.

Why would you take the SE off the list, I think it would be perfect for what he is wanting to do.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i also am wondering the same...i was kinda leaning towards RE Audio SE as I was very happy with the way the SX performed

just because it's the most 'generic' nowadays, sort of like a base to compare everything to. There's nothing wrong with it, it's a perfectly good woofer but I always got a lot more enjoyment out of trying new woofers

Unreal i hope you dont mind me posting these pics and let me know if you do and i will take them off immediately.

I will be building a fiberglass enclosure basically identical to this one and was wondering if you guys could kind of guesstimate approx how many cubic feet this one appears to be. Thanks

haha well it looks like the SE is the most expensive out of the bunch. I'm wondering just how good that AQ SD2.5 is bc it is only $159 shipped. Seems like a good deal. Any ideas on size of the enclosure posted above? Thanks guys
