Sub suggestion for 1000w@2ohm/3cuft

[SaxoFx]

Hi, I'm looking for a pair of subwoofers to complete my current system. My main goal is to get loud but having decent SQ in doing so:

1) I have 2 RF 1001bd amps (1000w rms @ 2ohm) I would like to use, so that limits the woofers that may work. (This amps don't get to 1ohm)

2) Also, I don't have much space, I could give each sub about 3cuft airspace (+port+displacement).

3) I live outside USA so my options are somehow limited. (I have a friend that brings stuff from there so I'll be asking him to quote some products for me)

4) Budget would be about 350 for each sub. (Not including shipping, taxes, etc)

One local store offered my a pair of S15L7's, but I don't know if they would sound loud and low in 3cuft. (Min recomended ported box)

They also told me they'll be getting the MTX 9515 in about 30 days but according to WinISD (just learning to use it) it would have less SPL than the L7. (but I'm sure better SQ).

My other option is to ask my friend to get me some subs from USA, so what others should I look at according to my parameters. (Someone suggested Orion H2's 15, 2000wrms, but I heard they require way more than 1000w to get loud...)

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks... Next week I'm getting a quote on them shipped to my country. Let's see if I can get them.

look at the magnum d2, the 12s are 300 shipped i think they should be a lil bit more to canada but not that much, do a search on them they are a real great sub and with the power you have they will be very loud and have great sq
