Dayton Audio UM10-22 10" Ultimax DVC Subwoofer 2 ohms Per Coil

I'm getting a Ford Ranger XLT and I wanna do a more SQ focused build for it. Something small, not trying to win contests and not trying to do hairtricks.

Right now my plan is to run 2 10s in a sealed box with a set of 6.5 comps in the kick panels. I listen to a lot of different types of music and I do like to bump music, most of my time in my vehicles the radio is on max before clipping.

My last system was 4 OA 15s tuned to 31hz with 5x7s in the front only on HU power in a 2003 F150 supercrew. Once I got over the novelty of being able to destroy my truck with bass I realized I wanted a smoother frequency response. I only want to spend 2K$ max on the entire build so I know I can't afford the mids and highs to keep up with a 150db substage, so I'm going smaller.

My question is how do these sound and how loud do they get?

 
Dayton doesn't make a bad sounding sub period. They all have fairly good SQ.
The Ultimax line can get loud and low aswell
How do they compare to JL W1 10s? I'm asking because those are the only pair of 10s I've heard in sealed because my friend runs them. They sound better than my ported setup did IMO, they are in a prefab under his back seats.
