Stay away from a large sub that has a higher FS measurement. Some larger drivers actually have a hard time playing deep. Try looking for a number around 18-25.
If you are on a budget, these subs do a GREAT job!

in general they do, But in order to keep them "tighter" sounding or handle more power mechanically(not bottom out) some larger subs have incredibly stiff suspensions to control th big heavy cone and control mechanical travel better.
Most dedicated SPL subs have a high FS because they are often given 4-5X the power they are rated for for short burps, and usually are only playing over 45Hz.
For a really loud daily driver that can still play music without sounding like a fart box you have be a little more carefull in choosing your subs.

I wouldnt want a set up that was JUST made for spl. I would want it to be 140-145dB daily driver, that I could pound all day 
What would you guys recomend for a set up that could reach my dB goal and still be able to play regular music with reasonable sq when I want it to? Thanks again guys, I realy appreciate your advice!!!
