Ok cheap 10's for a jeep grand cherokee

[Rich00 10+ year member]

Hey guys I'm looking for a pair or one 10" that run good off of 300watts. I have had 2 10w0 off this amp and it was good I can buy them for $65ea. So I was thinking no more than $150 for the pair or one. I have a jl xd 500/3 which is 300 at 2ohms. I know the box matters more blah blah blah. I am not an spl junkie anymore I do like clean music. Is there going to be anything "better" than those jl 10w0? I have space so I'm undecided on ported or sealed. The amp is already bought and on my kitchen table waiting to be installed.

Sundown LCS

w0s are solid imo. Might be biased because my first subs ever were w0s lol.

So 1 LCS 10"? I not familiar with this sundown line of subs. Ill research it. The W0 10's are ok I just wonder if the old saying is true ill get more output out of 2 10's sealed than 1 ported?

I know you said 10s but if you like the w0s and just want a little more power I have the 12s in a prefab box. (My first set ever). They've had the jl grills from the moment they touched the trunk

The Sundown LCS subs are only available in a 12 right now. Seem like it may be a decent sub. LCS Series 12

JP had an unboxing video on YouTube yesterday.

you get the free enclosure with the sub i dont think its a good enclosure, the size is small.

always gonna be custom ported. If you dont have the means to get a custom ported box, then you'll want to do big cone area in a sealed box. like two cheap 15s. That should easily match a pair of 12s ported while keeping box design dummy proof. You really need someone who knows what they are doing when it comes to custom enclosures.

Are the lcs 10"s even out yet? Nevermind ignore this it was answered previously.

I am not doing 2 15's or even 2 12's ported. I know its about spl but I'm too old for that stuff now. Ive had everything from 2 8's to 4 10's to 2 12's. I am doing 2 10's sealed or maybe 1 12 ported. No more than that.

id say 1 12 ported in the correct box, buy the lcs and get a nice box built //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif vs buying 2 10's in a pre fab box

That's a possibility I'm gonna have a to price a box being built. I don't know anyone who builds them around here and I have no tools to do it. I wont pay $200 for a custom ported box when the sub was $89. If I can get a box built for $100 I would probably be in. Ill be looking into it. I don't want to rattle the jeep apart I just want more volume.

Or pay for a nicer box. There are some on eBay
