Need help choosing a sub

Hey what's up guys.

So I have been doing a lot of research on finding the right sub for myself and wanted to get some opinions from people who are experienced in this area.

My current amp is a JL Audio jx360/2

and I currently run two Planet Audio AC10D

What I'm wanting to do is buy one sub so there is more power going to it, because one sub say at 300watts will sound louder or w/e than two each individually using 150watts, correct?

I want to stick with 10" I listen mostly to EDM, Rock, Metal, and Classic Rock, country on occasion.

I only have an 8 AWG wire, don't really feel like running a new 4 AWG wire for a new amp right now.

Here is one sub I have been really close to buying, JL Audio 10w0v3-4

Now that I have read through a lot of posts in this section I saw someone mention JBL though it was a 12" I took a gander at the JBL s3-1024 looks pretty solid

Reason I like the JL Audio one it is $100 300w rms, though warrenty is voided passing 250, so id run it at that. I wouldn't run my sub at 100% anyways. In the future I would be buying another one, but that's at least 6 months, unless one just hits it perfect for me.

I don't want to go past 600w with two, also in the future I want to get new speakers each running off another amp at 50w, so 200w total putting me at 800w between both, I have a 90 amp alternator, and I think 800-1000w is pushing it.

If I could get help with this as soon as possible that would be great because if I end up getting the JBL I'd like to get the $23 discount before I leave here in 5 days for a few weeks.

I also prefer not to go over about $130

oh and box I plan on getting

https://www.amazon.com/Scosche-Se10-10-Inch-Sealed-Subwoofer-Enclosure/dp/B0007TJDG6/ref=pd_sbs_107_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0007TJDG6&pd_rd_r=CXS4GFR103HEQ8XAA42F&pd_rd_w=X6yNW&pd_rd_wg=4yriM&psc=1&refRID=CXS4GFR103HEQ8XAA42F

would .1 cubic ft make much of a difference for the JL? there is another I'm looking at that is .71

Thanks.

Here is my thought, theory. Those speakers are 80w rms. Half of that is 40w rms. Add the 40 to the 80 and you get 120w. Get an amp that is 120w...
