People with high SQ subs please help...

[captainCrunch]

I've posted a couple places I'm getting back into car audio and I'm amazed at all the loud junk out there...

I'm not being lazy here, (I have been searching) but would appreciate some input on a sub with the following characteristics:

I'm looking for an 8" or 10" (I need to keep the box size under about .75cubic ft)

I am not looking to boom! I am looking for high SQ and I have to admit I'm lost with all the new stuff...

I am just looking for a nice tight clean bass response...I've been looking at rainbow and dls and if there are any owners of those here any input would be appreciated.

If this thread violates the "New members read this" stickie I'm sorry!

Wow LOL! I didn't know any of these companies existed! Thanks guys. Do any of you own any of these particular subs?

Also lemme throw my hat in the ring here. Ive installed one of these 12" but they come in 10" with the same internals but just less surface area. Recommended these to a few people who just LOVED them. rsd10d. Sound great with little power, plenty of punch and sound quality that equals or surpasses my type-x.

Here the single voice coil version for $69: rsd10

Or the dual voice coil option for $94: rsd10d

Unbelivable, dont let the low price fool you. CarAudio and Electronics rated it #4 on the top ten subs (with place two and three tying).

I would also throw Treo into that mix.
