if you going to build a cube like box, use a "brace" in the middle (a big one) angled at 45 degrees, that breaks up something called "standing waves" inside the box, which GREATLY helps clarity and a little SPL. Bracing keeps the box solid againest flexing. Flexing is really bad

Seriously I have heard the current Rockford drivers and they can SQ well and they thump. If you want to be extremely loud and have great SQ then that thins the selections. I would add the BIG JBL’s (Gti series) and the new Memphis LVS driver in the mix.
I have heard the GTi and the LVS in SQ systems and they sounded good! I have also enjoyed the JL W6 in some 140+dB systems.
