[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7786950, member: 573547"] a doubling of power will only net 3db...a slight noticeable difference, but not anything major. The Sundown E series is one of only a handful of drivers that do not show the Sensitivity of each driver in that series, By this alone , I would recommend shopping for another driver, Unless you can contact them and get 100% verification of the DB sens @ 1watt/1 meter on that driver. This is very important in your situation. For the JL 10w1v, 2JL states a db sens of 84.5 @ 1watt/1meter, but they do not give the airspace for your box. IF the Stealthbox meets the airpace requirement of .5 cubic feet sealed and the mounting requirements of the E10, then it would only come down to comparing the sensitivity of the drivers. If you can find a suitable driver with 88db sens @ 1w/1m, then you will net another 3.5 db gain...this, combined with the possible 3db gain from the doubling of power would be a very noticeable difference in audible volume...hope this helps [/QUOTE]
