What pair of 10's to get?
What pair of 10's to get? Alright, I am in the market for a set of 10's again. They are going in two fiberglass boxes on each side of the car in the wheel well area. My mounting depth is limited to about 8 inches. I am not looking at 100% SQ in my setup. I want to pound the hell out of the car. Any suggestions or options on a sub would be nice. Here are the main choices I am looking at, any others that compare, let me know.
1. JL 10w6
2. Kicker L7
3. Alpine Type R
4. Rockford's Power Stage 1

I dunno if you could make a box easily that has enough cubic air for the W6 to function efficiently. I just bought a stealth box with a 10w3v3 and I asked about putting in a W6... stereo rep said that'd be no good w/o mods to the box.
There is nothing easy about making a box that fits into the wheel wells. But I have done it before and did it again. One cubic foot is possible and how well would a 10w6 sound maxed out in that amout of air space.

Check out caraudio.com, they will have definate opinions and include some subs you've probably never heard of.

I partial to the JL Audio 10W3v2-D4 10" myself. I juts picked up 2 for my new Stealth boxes. I had JL's in my last Z28 and liked them a lot. Gotta buy them grey market or you'll pay full retail and they are EXPENSIVE at full retail.
Elemental Designs 11Ov.2 linky
Havent heard a bit of bad reviews or of any sort about this sub. Just put one in a stealthbox in my Z and am very pleased. They are designed to work their best in small enclosures, so buy one and save your T-top storage, just my .02 cents

Others:
Either the M1 or M3 Memphis for 300-500w (good SQ/SP response)
OR the 35 series DD's (Digital Design) hit real hard, and can take even more juice!
Hard to provide direction not knowing power supply! And then you have the rest of the F-body world who runs JL
and nothing wrong with them either, but you may have clearance issues w/DD and Memphis. Heavy deep magnets!
