Why just those 2? They're completely different subs by the way. What's your goals with the subs? SQ, SPL? And if you're buying new there's a lot better choices than both of those. You're going to need to tell us how much you room you have, what type of music you listen to, what kind of vehicle is it? Be a little more specific.

You're probably not giving the Kicker enough room. Unless it's a Solo Classic Kickers like big ported boxes. The AB is also going to like a big ported box. How much are you looking to spend? Polk's MM's are great and like a small box. They're also Marine Certified. Here's a link:

Polk Audio MM1040 (MM0-1040) 10" Single 4 ohm Mobile Monitor Sub They got em' 10's, 12's and 15's.

last question,why kicker recommend 0.6 to 1 feet cube box for sub and the reality is more than the double!!

Because they want you to buy more subs to fit in your space available (more sales), as oppose to fewer subs operating efficently.

The sa 10 is recommended for 1-1.25 ported..a D4 would work good with that amp.

same box here, I would probably do this in D1 wired to 2ohms if $ were non issue

Ps, I'd build the box out of Baltic Birch for marine use....won't swell and crumble if it got moisture on it, or fell in the lake for that matter..lol.
