Hello
Can I have some information about Visaton WS 20 E (~29€, parameters), WS 25 E (~34€, parameters), W 200 (~28€ parameters), W 250 (~46€, parameters) series subwoofers and which one is better. Going to use two of them in ~20m2 room.
P.S price range in brackets

What is something better? I dont think T-line suits me. I am looking for some quick and deep bass(as deep as possible with the current options).

Considering the use "sub", none. Now let's see,
You could use them OB or in large sealed speakers. Let's check them overall,
I would use the W 250 - 8 Ohm as a woofer, and not a sub, in an OB like application or sealed (~100/120L) Dahlquist DQ-10 style. You can use ~50W RMS with "no" distortion in this case (sealed) and it is 92.6 dB/2.83V/m.
Now the VISATON W200, this would be more interesting but again, the size of the speaker, it can work in a BR or sealed, if you can try a reflex of 120L@30Hz... to get some subs sonics and you can use the full power RMS about 40-50W.
The WS 25 E - 8 Ohm is an interesting woofer good for OB. Place it in the wall (literally) with an adjacent room as the enclosure, or use it as a OB/baffle only. In a 120L sealed has one note only (~50Hz) and in OB or wall baffle it will sing lower frequencies, in this case about ~10-20W only.

Visatons' homepage suggest three Bass Reflex boxes for W250 30L@43Hz, 50L@38Hz, 70L@38Hz. Why those bad option and Open Baffle is a solution?
With the listed models, it is impossible to have a "quick" bass with vented or closed box, because of their TS parameters (high Qts). They are good for OB, as Inductor pointed up, but I think that is not your idea for a sub. Transmission line box will have the most "quick" bass, compared to a vented or closed box.

Yes, read my lips, as a woofer (2/3-ways) not as a sub.
Nice woofer.
For a sub 70L@38Hz you get a high Q (not desirable), you will need extension in LF, and F3~50Hz. Simulate them yourself instead of asking questions without trying.

If I had a programs I would do that myself. But I dont have any. That's why I am here looking for information.
FWIW, this is the most current, optioned, accurate version: https://www.facebook.com/WinISD/posts/126113234166443

There are many possibilities with these speakers ....
Only two, I built on my own:
W200S in 39l vented box (called W20.39 by Visaton, just look at their homepage).
This is a great woofer for a small room if you don't have massive ambitions regarding level ... I used that one for years.
W250 (8 Ohm) in a relatively small closed box. That is what I use currently for music, two of them back to back to cancel movement, don't have the exact numbers, but some 40l each. With a bit of active equalization it is linear down to 40Hz and has no relevant dynamic limits in a room with 20 m^2
Disclaimer: I'm 49, not 19 so my expectations regarding level might differ from yours ;-)

I'm not really into "power" things. At the moment I can't make a decision which enclosure to choose. Probably going to make more calculation and take a break for 1 month. In the mean time going to look for amplifier. Thanks for the help everyone!
It's wise to use them at home? My amp is Koda KD-216 (2x110rms 8ohm manual) http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/library/2004/5_subwoofers/p110s4-p110s8-ts.pdf
Do you get/have the Rockford Fosgate S4 or the S8? (manual? linked)
They are good in a sealed (LT optional) or 4.wave/TL type.
They will have more dB's on the 20-50Hz LF in a BR 70's+/90 liter.
In a sealed 40L you can have F10@24Hz
In a BR 90.0L@23Hz you can have F3@22Hz. You can also tune it higher say a 70L@32Hz for a higher Qt.
You have here already 3 different patterns alignments.

I would like to go BR 50 liters@40hz and F3 ~32hz with a 50cm^2 port at 12cm length (90l@23hz is way too low for me to listen them at home). However what is better a BR or TL/4wave (i would tune it at 40hz)? I am going to use 8ohm speakers, because my amp operates only at 8 ohms.
