Need help choosing my next subs, going crazy!

[Loaked 10+ year member]

I just cant decide what subs to get, i only got one shot to get it right and get some good ones, and just want to make sure a make a good descision. I have a Mmats 1500.2, subs going in a sealed box, sorry no ported. Box is 1.25 cu ft' per sub. Looking for 2 12s. I listen to moslty heavy metal. I think the Fi looks to be the best from what I've gathered, but the Audiopulse looks good too... I just didnt know what one would really shine in a sealed inclosure... Any suggestions to point me in the right way would be great. I know ported is louder, better, etc. But I already have the box, and dont have room to go ported atm.

since all you have is 1150 on tap i would go with the audiopulse as it is a much more effecient sub then the ssd

Well, its rated at 1500w at 2ohm and it is a MMats amp, so that may even be a little under rated a hair.

How about going different and get two of the newer Cerwin Vega Strokers?

your box is perfect for the type R's..i dont know exactly what you are looking for just thought i would put my input...if your amp is 2 ohm you can get the SWR-1222d

Those are pretty gnarly, but I guess I should have mentioned trying to keep it as close to $350 for the pair hehe. Those are like $400 each //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Funny you mention those, I was about to pick some up, I have had Type-r before and loved them... a lot. But I started doing research and found all these other subs that seemed to be better for the money, and now I just cant make up my mind. I might say screw it and just get Type-Rs lol. But I kind of wanted something different anway, since I have had so many of the Rs over the years.
