I’ve been running a 12” subwoofer shootout here: A tale of 12" subwoofers, distortion and 15 dollars.

Still would like to test a few more drivers. Already tested the:
Ultimax 12
Dayton rs 12 8 ohm
Diysg magnum 12
RadioShack 12” Dvc
Eminence lab 12c
Wavecor 12
GRS 12
Peerless xxls 10

If you got a 10” or 12” not on list let me know.
I probably can’t offer much but what do you guys have?

I have 4 - 10” scanspeak from a Lynn Olson project I believe they are 25W/8565 . I have built several subwoofers and was not pleased with them for music, and it was not until I purchased a measurement microphone that I understood what was going on. Room response played a huge part in bass response, they have some very distinctive peaking and even multiple peaks that required taming. I now use Mini dsp to correct it. I question digitizing, processing, and converting back to analog however when I close my eyes it just sounds good.

Wirewiggler, those scanspeak look like they will like the bigger box sizes like my 3 cu ft.
Are you willing to sell me one for testing?

I've used minidsp and like the results too, however I spend too much time fiddling with it.
