There is some clearance of some nice SQ gear Nakamichi SP-W1000D and the Nakamichi PA-4001 give you about 350wrms. Check them out on the bottom of my signature. Sorry just mentioned those because of the pricing right now. Other then that out of the other two you mentioned I would go Boston.

If you do not have the box already, look to MTX for a Thunderform. It comes inc. the sub and is available in a amplified or non amplified version.

In any case, you have a small sealed box to contend with. You are going to play the hit or miss game if you just choose a sub based on a recommendation with no basis for support. Find a 10" sub that works ideally in a small sealed application. What amp is going to be used on the sub? I just don't understand how people can recommend subs without knowing the rest of the equipment.

It will work, but it is more optimized for a Ported Enclosure.

If you are looking for good sound sealed, the 2XL is more your cup of tea. It is designed for tight bass in a sealed enclosure.

Eclipse makes a great sub in a small sealed box application. www.eclipse-web.com for more info.
