Default Audio setup... need advice

Im having trouble deciding which direction to go with my audio setup.

Im having a hard time deciding on which sub/amp combo will work best for me. i do listen to alot of rap and rock but I dont want people to hear me 3 streets over, those days are done for me.

Im getting a pioneer avic-x930bt very soon and currently have polk db6501s.
Ive been considering making a spare tire box out of mdf and either using a 8" or shallow 10" sub. If I make the box, i will make a DIY for it and take lots of pics.

Heres what ive come up with so far. Please let me know if you have any suggestions and if you know of anything better.

I havent heard any of these personally, so im not sure what to expect from each of these.

If i wanted a cheaper option, i was considering amping the sub, this looks interesting
