DUAL SUBS IN THE $10,000-$15,000 RANGE

I just sold my pair of JL F212's after hearing the Gotham(big mistake!). I'm about to drop $15G's for a pair of used(store demo's) Gotham's that have being upgraded from v1 to v2. Now since I'm about to spend big mula on bass, why not consider others awesome subs that may even be better than the Gotham's(if possible). I want my subs to do both music(primary) & bombastic movies(secondary) with LOW distortion. Please comments on the list below or add others I am missing. I listing them in my preference. Thank you!

Those are all great choices. Another is the Rythmik F25 at $3k (plus shipping) for a pair, $6 for a quad, $9k for a sextet, $12k for an octet, and $15k for ten (a dectet? ;-). Rythmik's 10% discount for a purchase of multiples will pay for the shipping. The F25 features two aluminum-coned 15" woofers controlled by designer Brian Ding's patented Direct Servo Feedback circuitry, each driver powered by it's own 400w amp. That is less power than that found in some other subs, but the Rythmik driver is unusually sensitive/efficient, not needing as much power to produce a given SPL as the woofers used in those subs. The TC Sounds LMS Ultra 5400, for instance, is extremely insensitive, needing far more power than other woofers to reach full output. The Rythmik F25 is a very sophisticated, high-performance subwoofer, and an absolute bargain.
