ok so i currently have 2 RF p1 punch's in individual boxes while they sound good they just dont hit all that hard and the trunk space taken up from the isnt really worth the work they are doin lol. So i have 2 options replacing the 2 10's with 1 better 10 or ditching the 10 for an 8 in the stock location... i have a 760 watt 2 channel pionneer amp

what i have X2

Speaker Connector Dual 8 AWG compression
SPL (1w/1m) 85 dB
Mounting Depth 5.25 in.

for the 1 10 replacement this is what i was thinkin

or the 1 8" would be

rf punch

or a jl8w3v3
8" Single 4 ohms W3v3 Series Subwoofer

DMA optimized motor system
Elevated frame cooling

Sensitivity: 83 dB



so my ?'s are would the 1 10 type r in theory hit harder/same as the 2 10's i have now... and if i were to do the 8"setup would there be any dramatic gains picking the jl over the RF...the price JL is twice is much but the only thing i see is 100 more watts but im no expert. Thanks for any advise to any one who read through this whole thing

personally i hate running subs on stereo a/b amps but i guess you gotta make due with what you have right...

main question is what is your budget?
1 Audioque SDC2.510 with a 500d will sound real good. put one in my ex girlfriends 03 maxima and its loud enough to give her headaches when she turns it up.

look into a Mach5 audio IXL 10... its a solid 10 and with simply .4cubic feet sounds real good and hits much better than any kicker,jl, alpine 10 would
