which sub(s)?

[hondacr125 10+ year member]

Right now I have two 10 pioneer premiers which I am trying to sell. I want something with more spl and sq. I am going to get a kenwood 1000 watt amp if that changes anything. I was thinking one 12 or 13.5 W7, one MTX thunder 9500, I dont know about RE audio but everyone says they are great subs so maybe the XXX 12, two 12 05 CVR's, or Orion H2 12? What are the pros and cons of each subs and which would you recommend? They will be going in a 94 grand prix for now and later an eagle talon probably. I will build whatever box they need so that doesnt matter either. Thanks.

p.s. I am selling my subs for $275 for the pair, ts-w1500spl.

1000 watts total?

CVX 12's

XXX 12

W7 is sweet, but you pay for that woofer.

MTX....

Orion is a good driver...

Compared to the other subs i asked about how does the Eclipse sw9122 compare? I can get one of those for around $350, the JL is like $700 i think, H2 i can get a 12 or 15 for around $230, Kicker prices change up quite often, the Thunder9500's i can get for about $375, and how much are the XXX's? Which do you think would be the best, considering i have a budget as well. Thanks

I'd choose the MTX.........oh wait, I already did. Here's a quick video of the 9500's ability on 1200 watts. SQ is great and if you put them in the right box, SPL is pretty impressive.

Oh, and where can you get a 9500 for $375, I would buy an extra for that. You have to be careful, because MTX will not honor the warranty unless you buy them from one of their authorized online distributors or from an authorized retail agent.
