Suggestions?

I'm looking to buy 2 12's i'm getting into SQ a little so I want 2 12's that will sound great but will still have the HOLY CRAP reaction. I'll be running 2,500 rms and have big 3 and a nice size battery in the back. What 12's would you guys recommend, I would like to just reuse my current box that is 3.5 cubic feet tuned to 35hz.

Short version

2 12's or 1 18

Looking for SQ but nice spl

work well in 3.5 cubic feet or around 5.5 for the 18

handle 2,500 rms for the pair

$550 max for the pair

Get LOWWWW!

EDIT: The main 2 i'm looking at right now are 2 12" DC Level 4's or 2 12" TC Sounds LMS-R

Thanks in advance

Will the Icons handle the power? and how much are the Image Dynamics?

I could also do 1 18 but I want to stick with the 2,500 rms

Xcon 18' You don't need to give it 2500 to get it loud. 31 mm xmax.

SSA Xcon 18" Sub woofer1750rms 31mm Xmax

The main thing is it needs to get louder than my 2 12" Type R's on 1k

Lol, You think the xcon isn't gonna get much louder than 2 type r's? lol think again. Just don't go throwing that beast into a prefab box.

.thats not very difficult,

i would say either 1 15 or 1 18, for normal driving turn the sub control down to match the sub to your front stage for better sq, then when you want to show it off turn it back up, just make sure you set your gain properly.

as for sub, i would say either the icon, IA dp or treo ssx
