I need some help deciding which of the following subs would be better for an SQ type setup.

I currently have (2) of the older Alpine R's (300RMS) and am overpowering them...I really like the sound but the newer model has a 7" mounting depth.

Having taken the parameters below into consideration....

1.) 10" 4ohm DVC (or 2ohm SVC)
2.) less than 5-3/4" mounting depth
3.) less than $120 each
4.) able to take at least 400RMS each

I have narrowed my choices (since I can't possibly find a shop that has them all) to the following (in no particular order)...

1.) Diamond Audio D310D4
2.) Diamond Audio CM310D4
3.) A/D/S R10S
4.) Orion P10D4
5.) Clif Designs CDAW100
6.) Alphasonik PSW410

Please let me have some of your vast expertise on these (or any others that would fit all of the parameters)

Thank you for any input.

The 10's are 300RMS...I can try to see if a 12" will fit with a little hole manipulation

Wonder why there site doesn't have the V.3 series on it (it's supposedly newer than the V.2 version)

er - that link above is kinda misleading cause if u download their PDF file u will see that the 12" is 350wrms.......

Well I think I'm going to rule the ID's out...I know the SQ is good but they just don't fit the parameters and I really don't fell like modifying the box to make the 12's fit...thanks for the input though

You know anything about any of the other choices by chance?

like i said above - never heard any of those

but if i personally had 2 make a choice out of those - i'd pick diamond CM3 cause its SQ is said 2 be very good & its 500wrms rating should mean it gets loud ...

That's the one I was leaning towards the most (can get 2 of them for $194 including shipping).

My 2nd choice were the A/D/S (can get them for $84 each)
