Stealth or millhouse

Which one will make more bass and quailty. Similar in price. Which is best for 2 10s. Even with T-tops off which is best in sound.

Drawback of dual stealths:

For two 10"s you would obviously need both the driver and passenger side stealths. Which would mean you will have to ditch the spare tire. Not a big deal to some..... but if you can keep it....why not? Mounting depth on the stealths is limited. So no super subs such as the W7 or Brahma. Also, the passenger side stealth is a little larger the the driver side. You will need to fill that extra space with something to even them out. Just a note for ya.

Positives of dual stealths:

They are always out of the way. There is no flipping the box up and down. That point alone is enough for me to choose the stealth's.........but it's up to you.

The drawbacks mean nothing to me. I know all of that. I want sound and keep my t-top storage and thats it. I dont want one of them to get broken. Which has the better sound. I was thinking of a q logic bax which is really sweet but I loose the t-top space. I could put them on the back deck but Im afraid that they could still get broken.

I'd stick with one of the two above mentioned choices. The q-logic box is flimsy compared to the build quality of any box from subthump. And if you were to build something that would go on the shelf, it would be in plain view for any theives that might be looking. If the drawbacks mean nothing to you, then I'd go with dual stealths. What subs were you planning on using? Remember that the stealth boxes are pretty small, so choose your sub accordingly. Maybe the Alpine Type-R or Type-S?

Not to mention that the q-logic is a very heavy box. I'd go with the milhouse. I really think you'd like it. Lots and lots of guys are using it.

I plan on either infinity perfect 10s, fosgate hx2 or the HEs, Mtx 8000s, or Audiobahn 1000qs. All these subs match my amp (PPI 600 watts at 4 ohms). Megabass which of the boxes do you like since you sell them. T-top, millhouse, or the dual stealths. I want good sound the the Ts on or off and I want the storage for my tops.

Depends how loud you want it. If you want it really loud, then I'd say just get a pair of 12s and the t-top box. But if you don't need it quite so loud, then a couple infinities or rockfords will be fine. Stay away from anything heavy like t8000s and audiobahns. If you want the best SQ, then a pair of Alpine R's or JL 10w3v2s would be perfect.

If you just want to keep you t top space, they do have a t top box. That's the one I want to get. It would probably sound better since there would be more airspace.

Definately. Although with that box, you might as well do two 12s or three 10s. Anything less is a waste IMO.
