The JL's will most likely have the best SQ if you go sealed. Won't be really loud though. If you want a mix of loudness and SQ then either one of the SSA's with that amp. You wont be fully pushing either of those with that. I would personally take the xcon so that later you can upgrade your amp to push it harder

You would have to try really really hard to hurt X-con with that little power.

use common sense and do not clip it all the time....you can run it on 100 watts from now on, just keep the signal clean
