Which 10" sub for ~.65ft^3, sealed for SQL? CDT QES-1020, Fi Q10, or Peerless XXLS

[thaar411 10+ year member]

Sub will installed in a 2002 Pontiac Firehawk (***** Am) in a drivers side stealth box in the rear well. The box volume will roughly be .6-.7ft^3. The drivers I'm considering is the Fi Q10 the CDT QES-1020, and two Peerless XXLS. I listen to pretty much everything, however, hip-hop and rock are played a majority of the time, and am looking for an SQL setup. Price doesn't matter. Here are the specs for each:

idmax

all great sealed drivers with heart pounding ability while staying clean

if you want the ultimate seALED sub then

the audiopulse revo or tc sounds-2000 is what you want

The SSA is the only driver that would work, and one I haven't considered. Both the IDMAX and the IXL require more airspace. I'll have to check out the others you mentioned as well.

Hey thaar,

I'm putting a RE SE-10 in my stealth box in my Z28,we'll see how it sounds. I was looking at the mach5,but the shipping put me off.

The IDQ rather than the IDMAX is an option as well. Too many options. I'm about to crazy...
