What sub should I use?

   Ok, i've made up my mind, for my DJing rig i'm going for the Martin Audio WSX design for a box. But i've narrowed it down between two subs to use but i'm not sure which one, and I want your opinion. 
1. The RCF L18 P300 which if I remember right is what people said that cabinet actually uses, or used at one point, or the second option:
2. The Peavey Lo Rider
This is going to be used for mostly, for music from the 70's to now, so no techno or anything like that, because eventually this will turn into my live sound system for bands. SO out of those two subs, what would you reccomend?

	peavy drivers are not great and that driver is not suitable for this cab. Go for the RCF driver for sure.

	Most people that bad-mouth the Peavey base their comments on the Black Widow they didn't like. The Low Rider is a different animal. The Low Rider has a stiffer cone, and more x-max. The only reason I wouldn't use the Peavey here is the back volume required is going to be around 5 cu ft, otherwise I would consider it (it's also about $130 less).
