Trying to decide on budget entry-level subs

[scheibler 10+ year member]

I have around $200 to spend. I like spl over sq, but would prefer a mixture of both. How are these and have any of you listened to these in person? I've heard one Kicker 12" L5, but don't no how that compares to these:

2 15" Orion P15's

2 10" Polk Momo's

http://www.cardomain.com/item/POLMM1042PAK

2 10" Kicker Solo-Baric L5's

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-jxKidI36IT4/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=520&I=2065S10L54

2 10" Alpine Type-E's

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-jxKidI36IT4/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=520&I=500SWE1242

Which of these is the best bang for the buck? The size of the box has to fit in a 1999 Nissan Maxima.

I really like the look of the momo's and the size of the orions. The orions and momo's seem to handle the most power, but I no solo-narics can bump! The alpines I jsut hrough into the mix b/c they were so cheap for two and I like my friends two type-s's, but that is in a small single cab chevy s-10.

I would get the L5's.

u say u have $200 to spend, but those L5's are $200 a piece? go on ebay and find something

 

[scheibler 10+ year member]

if you look closely they momos and l5's are both being sold in pairs. Keeping that in mind, how big will a box for two 10" l5's have to be ported?

btw, how do the polk momo's compare? I really like the 3 year warranty

Some 187 10's or 12's might work. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
