need two relatively shallow 10's (250 watts each)

[2500hd06]

My system will be based around the DLS Ultimate A5. It'll be installed in a standard cab silverado. I'm 6'7" and I routinely have passengers that are 6' or taller so my seat cannot be moved up at all and I'd prefer not to move the passenger seat more than an inch or two.

I'm looking for a pair of 10's that will be more SQ orientated while still being able to produce some volume. The max mounting depth is 6", but less is more in this case. The A5 is rated at 500x1@2ohms or 780x1@1ohm. I will probably run it at 2 ohms since I'm concerned that 780 watts would overpower the 85x2 that the front stage will be recieving.

So here is the cliff notes version of what I need per driver...

10"

250 watts handling

SQ orientated

sealed enclosure size of .75 cubic ft. or less

either single 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm voice coils

Authorized dealer price of $250 or less

Look for the Sundown SD1v2 10s. Jake(owner of sundown) Is blowing them out right now for under 100 bucks and the have geat SQ reviews. They were said to be right with IDQ in sound and performace and are well under 6in Depth.

I am using a 10" image dynamics id10 in my regular cab chevy colorado. Mounting depth is 5.5" and would work great off of 250 rms watts.

edit: i bought mine authorized from wooferstetc.com for $159 each. Also they need small boxes, mine is in a .7 cubic foot box.

I don't think you need to look much further than the Image Dynamics IDQ10V3.D2

10" Sub

50-500w RMS

SQ Oriented *CHECK*

5.79" Mounting Depth (Close I know, could look into the ID10" if this is too close.)

Sealed enclosure of 0.55ft^3 to 1.1ft^3

Dual 2 ohm

Authorized dealer (woofersetc.com) price of $239 with free shipping.

You guys actually listed off most of the subs that are on the top of my list. So far I've been looking heavily into these (in no particular order)...

JL Audio 13tw5 (single)

Memphis 15-Sc10

Image Dynamics IDQ10

MB Quart rsh

I'm not 100% sure, I could get the memphis or JL within the stated price range, but if I liked them enough that could be worked out. I also keep hearing about the new stereo integrity BM, but I've yet to see any solid release date.

Up until I had a house fire a few months back I actually had a brand new kicker kx550.3, pioneer rev coaxials and a pair of ID8's along with all the wiring and deadening sitting on the kitchen counter waiting to be installed. I'd like to throw in a few extra bucks on top of the insurance reimbursement to go a little more high end than originally planned.
