for me please. I am more concerned about sql over spl. I prefer not to give the actual manufacturer but you may be able to figure it out by the specs.
I know there are better speakers out there but I am not looking to spend an arm and a leg for them. Would you put these in the bottom, middle, or upper
end for sql subs judging just by these specs. Oh and if you need additional information please let me know and I will post that also. Thanks for all the
help.

SQL exists only in your mind. posted_image

Go ahead and give us the manufacturers and models if you don't mind. We need to know if the specs we are looking at are a fantasy or actually credible.

No can do.

Nothing in T/S parameters can tell someone the "quality" of a subwoofer.

T/S parameters allow the buyer to match a subwoofer to his application and plan bandwidth performance.

Sorry.

Hope you have a healthy amp, sensitivity isn't on the high side. Your question might be more effective if you ask member's suggestions for affordable, quality subs.

It's an Aura 10. Good drivers, I've always been pleased with mine! The "Neodymium Radial Ring Magnet" gave it away for me...

They DO like a lot of power, just keep that in mind!

Why wouldn't you post the name of the manufacturer.

So I could post the specs for an Audiobomb sub and ask what do you guys think??

Not familiar with the Aura drivers but if haemphyst says they are good than they are good

haemphyst.... you got it. I just wanted to hear honest opinions on specs, not oh it's this or that brand so they suck or they are great. I believe that Aura specs there stuff out way under what they are really capable of, but that is just my opinion. Anyway I have an opportunity to purchase a very large quantity of items and these are extremely hard to find so I am thinking about upgrading all three of my vehicles with systems. If I purchase to much then I will just ebay it. I have been looking for this stuff for about 6 months and finally found a good quantity. Wish I could find someone else selling them to compare prices but I dont think that is going to happen. Anyway thanks for the help everyone.

If you're gonna ebay the leftovers, let us know here, first. I'd be interested in obtaining one or two of either of those woofers. Preferably a single 10, so I can match the one I already have.

Keep us in mind.
