Looking for a good sealed box sub on a budget. Suggestions welcome

[Spooney 10+ year member]

I have been throwing around this idea of doing three sealed tens for a while now and I think I am finally ready to go that route. I am trying to find some decent quality subs in the 75 to 100 a piece range that will be happy in a sealed box. Ideally the subs will have single 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm coils and handle 400-600 rms a piece. Wish I had the coin to go with some dc level 3's but those are way above what I would like to spend. Like the sound of them though. I've thought about the 187 series from LI or the dcon from ssa but not sure if either of those will handle the power I am looking at running(approximately 1500-1800). Am I looking for too much out of a driver in that price range?

JBL P1022 10" Dual 2 ohm Power Series Subwoofer you can get them for around 140shipped a piece on egay

I'm running 2 12s ported on 700ish watts a piece and am very happy with them, surprisingly large drivers; something like 35lbs each. And they'll likely perform better in sealed enclosures. The only downside is the very large overall mounting diameter.

also u could pm denim and ask if the dcon can take the power. i would say with 500 the dcon should be fine so long as ur not stupid with the gains
