I finally made up my mind on a subwoofer and box combo.

So I have studied all of the Marty subs and they all seem great. I want more chest slam in my movies and music. So I am going to go with the Classic MBM 18" with the 18" SAF184.03. The reason I am doing this is because I can't figure out how to make my own box which you guys have told me countless times. I just want a flatpack and be done with it. Would this be my best option for more chest slam? Thank you guys for all your help!

I've heard good things about that driver: the La Voces are solid performers at a reasonable price (for pro drivers). If you aren't chasing infrasonic frequencies, and will be content with a design that should perform from 30Hz on up, then I think its a solid choice.
If you wanted something with more meat on the bones down low, then going with a Marty might be a better option.
That's a decision you need to make for yourself.
Other than that, it will definitely deliver in the mid-bass area, as that is where these pro drivers really excel.

My other 18" hits the low notes just fine.
