They are aimed toward SQ, for at $120 each for 12", you're not going to likely find a louder sub either if they're put in a good box and fed about 350-400wRMS each
Those Shivas are fantastic subs for the cost..
If you want better subs, you're looking at about double the price to start.. around $250 each
An Alpine Type R might be an alternative to consider if you want options.

I want a really good SQ setup and the Shivas seem like the answer. Either 2 or 3 shivas in a slot ported box is what im thinking. Glass u know alot about the shivas .. what amp would u recommend with these subs .. for 2 or 3 shivas

depends on your budget and how many subs you decide on.

3 shivas in a custom ported box... with about 400 to 500 dollars to spend on an amp

going from 2 12"s to 3 12"s you have to double the wattage of the amp??! you recommended jbl bp600.1 for 2 12" adire shivas...thats wierd...to me anyway

Muncheez, the load changes. That affects how much power the amplifier actually delivers.

Mike, you can feed the Shivas up to 650wRMS each but they'll reach peak output with less.. closer to 350wRMS each
