I'd say the Audiobahn because it has the most watts.

But seriously, the best thing for you to do is take a listen to each of the subs and purchase the one that you prefer.

My preference in order would be 4, then 2, then 3.  1 and 5 I'd use as doorstops.

Steven you know you wouldn't use Audiobling because you'd have to mess up your all-Xplode system.  Comeon man, I know how you NEEDS to bang mad dee beez!

I would use #5 as it is the coolest one and is responsible for the global shortage of chrome. Might be able to use it as a weight on a deep line (ocean fishing) as that is pretty much all it is  good for. After that the Eclipse, Type Harr de har har har or the Infinity.

yo ccityroadshop, not trying to be mean or anything but do you still work at ccity? i used to work at one in new orleans a little while back. if you do i would go for the eclipse so you can enjoy that deep discount on accomodations. i think it is something like 50% off but i would go with a higher model than the sw6010. id go with the SW8000 if it is in your budget.
if you dont still work there id go with the infinity even though i dont really like infinity that much

yeah that does suck. even though you technically shouldn't do this, you can just get someone who is full time to put the order in for you and try to have it shipped to their house, not the store. i seen people do it all the time at my crooked store, which was recently shut down and liquidated, just dont tell anyone :) circuit city has bigger things to worry about

I love Type R's. Very versatile subwoofers. They low tuned transmission lines.
