[QUOTE="LoneRanger, post: 39704, member: 540903"] okay....here's the options i'm looking at. i have about 1.0-2.0 cubic feet of box space to work with. ported/slotted/bandpass boxes aren't an option as the seats would cover the ports, so i'm looking for a good sealed box subwoofer that will fit in this enclosure. the subs i'm considering are as follows Cadence UD12-2 : PROS: Good sq sub. Nice response, accurate and will hold 300w RMS. CONS: The only thing i don't like is that it's ORANGE! JL Audio 12w3 : PROS: Nice tight bass with great mix of SPL and SQ. 250-300w RMS and very long life if properly installed. CONS: Everybody and their brother owns these subs. Doesn't stand out at all. Alpine Type R 12 : PROS: One of the best SQ subs on the market, especially for the price range. Nice look and 300w RMS is always good. CONS: More SQ, less SPL than other two. I'm looking for a happy medium between the two. Audiobahn High Excursion 1200q : PROS: Looks mean, hits hard, and has more chrome than a '64 Impala. CONS: Not exactly a SQ sub, and tends to be way more efficeint in a ported enclosure. I've heard stories that they have a short lifespan in sealed boxes. The amps I'm looking at are either a JBL 300.1 or a Cadence q3000. Both are 300w x 1 @ 2 ohms, and all the subs i listed are capable of handling exactly this amount of power. So here comes the big question.....which is better? What's your opinion? If you were me, which would you buy? [/QUOTE]
