which of the 3 subs to get?

[BacNtheGame 10+ year member]

im looking on replaceing my 12's memphis that are running on hifonics 2008 at 2ohm in a slot ported box not sure what cube space is of the box but its 36w 13.5h 16d port is 13.5h 13.5d. my truck is a jeep commander. it sounds ok but its just to much power for the subs so its time to upgrade to some high power subs and i will be getting another box that is dual slot port tune for 30hz and 2.5 per sub. the subs im looking into are the

hifonics olm-2412 2400rms

cadence daytona dcw12rvc 3000rms

alphasonik psw9-12 2200

im leaning towards the hifonics olm2412 but also theirs more cadence dcw12rvc in use and can find more user feedback cant really find to much on the alphasonik psw9 but they look pretty good but not to much user feedback on them. i've been out the audio game for awhile.

also i will be adding a 10fard cap and maybe a second amp or just get a bigger amp not sure. thanks for any help on making my choice. i not building a contest system but i like my stuff to hit hard and deep.

Old pair of 1993 L.A. Sound 6.5" midbass would do the same job.

I put a pair in an original set of Bazooka Tubes, first tubes ever sold in my town in the early 90's, dang they were impressive little midbass. Looked like subs.

I assume you're talking about AA's Mayhem sub. I don't know how good they sound, because I've never heard one. AA reccomends 1.75 - 3 cubes for the 12" model...

the daytona is an amazing sub that i will stack up to many subs out their

PAIR CADENCE DAYTONA DCW-12RVC 12" 6000w CAR SUBWOOFERS - eBay (item 390128598914 end time Mar-07-10 12:06:58 PST)

pair for 479 new with free recones

IXL-12 v2 BR [iXL-12 v2 BR] - $149.00 : Mach 5 Audio

also an amazing sub 1000rms a piece for 150

SPL-12 [sPL-12] - $230.00 : Mach 5 Audio

spl powerhouse 220 for a 2500rms beast

you will def need a more powerful amp for the mach 5 spl or daytonas, if price is a problem i know someone selling a solid audio f2500d bnib for 350

or an audiopipe aqx3500.1 which is the same amp as a rd audio 3250v2 and have been clamped for 3600 rms plus for a 300 dollar amp, they are new not the old ap300d
