Versus threaddd..Mach vs. Obsidian?

I think I will be going with the Obsidian 12" or 15" since the Mach5 is around $250 :/ My budget is under $200

After doing some more research..I've come to the conclusion that the Dayton Audio H/O Reference 12" and 15" would be a better versus. since they are closest in price range. So what do you guys think?

well, the dayton will yeild better SQ than the OA. but, the OA will get louder. but the difference in the SQ will not be audible to your ear so i would just go with the OA

the oa has flat sewn leads thats why they look smaller and the leads can easily handle 1200rms....
