Need help in choice of subs. Suggestions....

It has come down to these final competitors, in order to make the field even they are all 12" woofers. I have found the 1 factor which you can usually tell the woofers apart by, the db sensitivity or spl sensitivity, and here they are....
cerwin vega stroker12"-92db sensitivity
eclipse titanium 12"-88.6 db sensitivity
Jl audio 12" w7-86.17db sensitivity
Diamond Audio TDX12D2-91db sensitivity
Mtx thunder9500-84.7db sensitivity
Rockford Fosgate TRF 2212-92.6db sensitivity
Kicker solo-baric S12L7-87.4db sensitivity

I am looking to only have one 12" woofer in the trunk, and cant decide between these.Does anyone have a personal preference? Stories, suggestions, anything that might help me make the right decision. Thanks......Matt

digital designs!!! i hit 148 db with one 12" 3500 series. i was beating guys with to jl12 w6's!! i swear i did. probably cause i was feeding the same amount of power to my one sub rather then tehm feeding that amount to both of their subs. did that make sense?

How much power rms are you running to it and in what size box? i am looking for very loud without sacrificing too much sq.
