I've got the box. You pick the sub

I just bought this box

http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=225099&highlight=10%22

I now need some suggestions for what to put into it. I'm thinkin a FI Q would be perfect in here but I would like some other suggestions that are a little cheaper. I'm focused more on SPL than SQ but i would say SQL is the target. I dont have an amp either but I would say I wanna shoot for somewhere between 500-800watts rms and everything's going in an 02 Toyota Solara. Let the suggestions begin.

a little tight on the space.........but a 10 inch type r should do the trick for that box

That was actually the second sub of thought of. Are there any subs in their price range that would be able to keep up with them SPL wise for this enclosure?

Tc-10 Oem

Those subs are looking for a extremely small box. The specs on TC say .5-.6 ported

I'm startin to lean towards the Hype R because of the price. Are there any other suggestions that can shine in this box?

A Stereo Integrity 10" BM wouldn't be too bad for that box.

Do u think it would outshine the Type R enough for the double the price increase?

I am a n00b in car audio and have only heard the Type R and I don't think it was an optimal setup even then. I can't tell you whether it would be better or worse, but I'm sure someone else can, I just don't want you to buy off of my inexperienced advice.

Thats rare that somebody admits their a noobie and doesnt claim to have heard every sub in america. Really appreciate the honesty.

I know it sounds like i've already picked the Type R but I would really like other suggestions. I would prefer to not get the same sub that everyone and their mama has but if its gonna perform the best for the money why not. Still open for suggestions.

500-800 watts? hmm why not look into an ssd? they will work in .9 to 1.5 ported tuned to 32hz.

Or this might be good, found this the other day:

I guess the TYPE R is the best option because I have heard anymore suggestions to match with this box.

The elemental Kv series is supposed to keep up with a Type R, but have better SQ. The 11Kv.2 or 11Kv.3 might be a good choice.
