I currently have 2 10" JL Audio W6v3 in 2cubes tuned to 30hertz and running off a JL Audio HD1200. I would like to get louder and also hit the lows a lot harder. Im thinking about getting a new setup that will be a bigger box and more power. These are the options below let me know your opinion.

2 10" Alpine X series in a 3 cubic box tuned to 32 hertz running off 1500-1800RMS

1 12" MTX 9500 in a 2.75 cubic box tuned to 32 hertz running off 1500-1600RMS

Last option I am not to sure as maybe the box will be too small.

1 15" MTX 9500 in 3 cubes tuned to 32 hertz running off 1500-1600RMS

buy new gear.   get a 3k and a sick 10, 12 or 15. or two 10s, two 12s on 3 k.    I would get a single 12 that can take the 3k, build a sick ported box and a 3k amp with a second or more battery.

what kind of car?

 
You could do 4 10s in a box with the same tuning on double your current power. 

side firing subs, 2 per side, as big of a box as you can fit while allowing about 3in on either side for the subs to load and a big 6-8 inch aeroport rear firing. 

I metered a guys 2 door grand am with 4 xfl tens on 2 vfl audio 4480 mono amps, probably 2200w rms, box was tuned to 34hz and it did 148db on music and played pretty flat down to 146 at 30hz. 

 
I dont want to give up my whole trunk. I work on it some more tonight. I think my JL Audio Fix86 is whats causing it  not to slam. First its not calibrating properly and second I think the Fix86 isnt sending my amp a good signal. I did a test where I took the RCAs out and did RCAs to headphone jack and I played music and it played soo much better.

On a side note if I did change woofers the  2 10s Alpine X would be louder but the single 12 MTX would play the deeper bass a lot better?

 
I use to have a 13w7 in my car running off the same amp. It wasnt as loud but it hit the low notes better. Maybe going a bigger box will help with deeper bass? Its in 2 cubes net right now so 1 cubes a sub. Was thinking of maybe doing 1.25 - 1.5 per woofer? Any recommendations?
