Sub decision Help
 

hey everyone im in the market for a new sub. i currently have a few choices including;

13.5" JL 13w6 500w rms
10" MTX 9500 750w rms
dual 12" clarion audio subs 350w rms each 700w rms total.
dual 10" infinity perfects 10.1 350w rms 1400w peak each, 700w rms 2800w peak total
12" kicker L5 600w rms

what do u guys think of all these. im looking for spl mostly but i dont want it to sound like a piece of crap if you know what i mean. if anyone can give me some input of these i would greatly appreciate it. thanks

My vote would be for the MTX. A good mix of both worlds. The JL is more sq, not much of a spl sub. I'd scrap the l5 off the list, it's pretty much a low level spl sub, not much sq out of them (in most installs of course). The clarions and infinity's, well they're clarion and infinity lol. Personally I would waste my money on those brands. They have good components but for subs there's WAY better out there.

would a single 10" mtx 9500 provide enough oomph? its only 10"

it all depends on the amp you use to power it. i have heard some pretty hard hitting 10's and mtx 10's are pretty decent.
