RE Audio vs Quantum Audio

I know all of these are kind of weak, but I'm trying find out which setup will have the most output ported? It will be in a F-150 with no extended cab. The box will be behind the seat. Box will be 48" wide and 7.5" deep, don't know the height yet? I'm looking at 2 Quantum Cosmik QCSW10d4's vs 3 rex10d4's vs 3 Quantum QPW10s4's? $130 is the budget. This guy just wants some good bass, and he's not trying to beat up the block.

Good bass as in loud or actually good sounding? I'd get a single good woofer before buying three cheapy ones. Are you restricted to just 10's?

^^^Much needed info.

If he wants good sounding bass, find a used IDQ or two.

If you have to choose between RE and Quantum, there really is no decision to make. RE wins this one, all day errday...

Not restricted, I just thought they would allow him to push his seat back further. The 12's I've looked at had deeper mounting depths. Good sound for him would be 60% SPL and 40% SQ. I was looking at just one 12 from Robot Underground that should handle 1000rms with a 6" mounting depth. I was looking at the RE's because RE claims they don't sound like entry level subs. The Cosmiks seem like they would move a good amount of air in ported? What do you think?
