So I'm going to be rebuilding my install over the spring.
I'm really thinking of ditching the 4 L710's and going to a nice pair of 12s
I should be just as loud if not louder with a pair of 12's anyhow.
I want some decent SQ but I want the ablity to get loud when I want (145dB+)

Currently I am looking at the following drivers:
RE Audio MX12 D2
RE Audio SX12 D2
Fi Audio Fi.Q12 D2 (with the BP Power option)
Fi Audio Fi.BL12 D2 (with the following options: P Chamfer, Flatwind, Daily)

I've modelled the MX12 and the Fi.Q12 (4ft^3 @ 33hz for both pairs)
RE MX12's:

Fi.Q12's:


I'm just wonder what you guys all think of my sub choices?
If you have any serious suggestion, I'm all ears.
I'm also trying to regain some of my trunk.
Thanks

I'm also thinking of competing a little this year.
And having 4 tens, I'll pretty much have my *** handed to me
going to a pair of 12 would make it a little easier.
Cosmetically 2 12's will fit and look much better.

if you decide to goto 12" RE MT's i have one in the forsale section. if your competing youll be happier with mt's than any of the subs your looking at.

2 12s will be nowhere near as loud as 4 10s. Your problem is your box obviously sucks. Ported boxes sound good if you tune low you don't need to use a sealed box for those woofers to sound good. Put them in 1 cubic foot per woofer ported and not only will it be a rediculous amount louder you won't miss slight differance in SQ. Getting 2 12s in a sealed box will only dissappoint you even more than what you have and of course you will be poorer on top of it

P.S. modelling means nothing when you take it out of a vaccuum and put it in a car

I was planning on going 2 12's ported in around the same amount of air space that I have, if not a little less.
All this stuff is starting to get very difficult to get all into my trunk
I need some thats nice to look at, but is going to perform well.
