Which sub?

Upgrading the MTX 4500(single 4 ohm VC) thats in a thunderform box for the 05 scab. Who has an opinion on these subs (all dual 4 ohm VC)?;
Infinity reference 1252 http://www.crutchfield.com/S-NHhKkGO...520&I=1081252W
JBL GTO http://www.crutchfield.com/S-NHhKkGO...0&I=109GT1204D
Alpine Type-S http://www.crutchfield.com/S-NHhKkGO...0&I=500SWS1243
Phoenix Gold http://www.crutchfield.com/S-NHhKkGO...20&I=218RSD12D
MTX 4500 http://www.cardomain.com/item/MTXT451244
I chose these 5 because they are in my price range and mounting depth ( less than 6"). Plan on pushing with an amp rated 600 watts RMS @ 2ohms.
Thanks

I see your looking at 12" subs. What's the mounting depth and air volume of that box? The subs you have picked out vary greatly in the recommended enclosures for sealed and ported designs.

On a side note, I shop at crutchfield and buy somewhere else.

The volume of the box is .93 cubic feet and the 4500 that's in it has a mounting depth of 5.5" and the box is sealed.
BTW, I would rather have SQ than SPL. I listen mostly to country and rock if that makes a difference. I prefer accuracy over boominess but don't get me wrong, I do want it low and loud.

of those 5 I'd probably go with the alpine. But don't buy just yet. Check out www.onlinecarstereo.com. Their prices are better than crutchfield.com and they offer a lot more products. For example that $149 alpine is $95 at onlinecarstereo
