Okay, so this is my first forum post and im fairly new into car audio also. I will start off with the equipment that i have bought already, this includes a custom pre fab box that specifically fits under Dodge ram seats, if i had a different car i would of built it. The box is for 2 10inch subs up to a mounting depth of 6" and .75cu ft per chamber and it is ported. I went at the sealed vs ported argument for a while because of such little space i had. I went with ported because i listen to Rap/trap and some dubstep so i want the loud boomy bass with a lot of SPL. I have true 4 guage wiring wired up to a JBL GTO-751EZ amp that does certified 750rms at 2ohms. I want to know what the best sub woofers i can put in there for the money.

budget is cant go over 100$ per sub

Box = 2002 2008 Dodge RAM Quad Cab Dual 10" Obcon Labyrinth Slot Vent Sub Box OBQ86 | eBay

Amp= GTO-751EZ | Powerful 1200-watt Car Subwoofer Amplifier | JBL US

I have narrowed them down to a few though including these

Pioneer: TS-W261S4 - <b>NEW!</b> - 10" Champion Series Subwoofer with Single 4 Ohm Voice Coil | Pioneer Electronics USA

I am leaning toward this one because it matches everything, has the lowest cu ft for ported and high sensitivity for more SPL.

JBL: GTO1014 | Powerful 10 inch Die-cast Car Subwoofer | JBL US

NVX: NVX NSW102V2 10" Dual 2-ohm NSW Series Car Subwoofer

Skar: Skar Audio IVX-10v2 400 Watt RMS 10" Subwoofer

I have heard about there past and heard they are better now

So those are the subs, i cant determine which is the best, or if somebody could recommend me a different better sub to fir my needs.

Thanks

 
Box is too small , not enough port volume for most 10" subwoofers, after sub displacement it will be less than the .75ft3 net per driver that is listed, which will be better suited for sealed rather than ported for 10" subwoofers, it will basically be a leaky sealed enclosure rather than a properly aligned ported enclosure.

'

you might want to look into 8" drivers that will work inside your limitations for better results

 
ehhh the box is not going to be good:(
DODGE QUAD & CREW CAB 2-10" VENTED

would of worked better but out of the subs i would get the incriminator
I KNOW!! After the fact i bought my box i was recommended that box and it is a lot better than mine though a little more expensive, it still is an amazing box, the incriminator's looked good but they dont list how much the recommended enclosure space is needed and isnt the pioneer's going to be louder because of the higher spl pioneers being 93db and incriminator's being 87.3db, also are they a good brand i havent seen or head much about them?

That sensitivity spec is useless. It's measured at 1 watt. A lot changes after 1 watt.

 
Ironically, I just put them on sale for the rest of the month. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
Honestly, i would pick the Dcon's instantly but still even on sale its just to much for me to pay, im getting budgets subs as it is im just wanting to know the best bang for buck budget sub
