List of Good 18"s

[rmzsuzuki89 10+ year member]

Ok, I've been looking for good 18" subs for a high spl/sql setup for a while now and have narrowed it to these. This will be in a Ford Expedition. Even though I'm still saving for my upgrade, making a decision will make me feel a little more confident. Still not 100% sure on the power I'm gonna run, so some of these may not work.

These are in no particular order:

-Soundstream XXX Series

-DC LVL 5

-RD S.H.W.

-RD H.W.

-RD Alpha (if I cheap out)

-Audiopulse LMS-Ultra

All feedback, or additions, are appreciated.

SS XXX series would be my pick, not that its biased or anything .... heh

T3 TSNS is also a great contender

LVL 5 or SHW

Any idea what kinda power these take. I know DC rates it at 2000rms, but I've heard that it likes more.

It takes some crazy power, but I'm a little worried about the cost to power them.

And the T3 looks pretty nice.

Not looking for sq, just high spl, that is half way musical...I've heard some adequate 18s.
