Subwoofer Comparison - Which One Do You Prefer Most???

[Silence]

Hi everyone...

I have Kicker RS65.2 and Kicker KS65.2 components, Pioneer 8650 deck and lastly XETEC P5 Amp (550W-580W 2ohm)

I decided to change my subwoofer and for this i add a poll and want to see why people choose any subwoofer so please if you choose a sub tell me why u've chosen...

My preferences for subwoofer; min 500W RMS, max 600W RMS, it shouldn't be totaly SPL. Besides performance and power it should have sound quality too i mean it should be balanced between performance and quality, lastly probably i will choose sealed box not vented so subwoofer should perform well in a sealed box...

Mostly i listen techno, club, electronic. I can say %70 techno, %20 RAP and %10Various...

For easier comparison i've opened a poll but please if you choose one tell me why u've chosen that sub...

Ive only heard the JL, they are nice... Loud too.

The Earthquake, the DLS and the DD all look pretty sweet tho.

Why is it your subwoofer options range from $100 to $600?

That's quite a large gap.

RE SE. The group buy won't save you a lot (Especially compared to their last one) but they work well off 600 watts, love sealed boxes, and have very solid SQL.

I voted for the dls Iridium. Very good sub and awesome sq.

I would also add a mag or a rl-p in there.

Or better yet the IDMax 12v3!But this is a 1000rms

idmax works well off 500 watts i agree with squeak though huge differences in sub prices here option dont make sense. the medial option out of what he has listed would be the 8512 as far as spl and sq imo but the dls subs are more sq so i dunno where this is going lol even by his discription a couple of these subs dont make sense.
