I,m running a pair of jl w7 8's at the moment . as for the size , I want it to get loud without sounding too aggressive like the jl,s tend to do .

The Infinity perfect 12 (the older series with the aluminum cone) was tested against some very high-end driver. and did surprisingly well...... i highly recommended.

Image Dynamics IDQ
Great Dynamics and Detail but not an SPL sub.
As in not aggressive but very clean in a seal box at about 1.2 cf.
