[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8850075, member: 683408"] I won't advise on a sub to buy, but I will tell you to read the advice people give you and see if it meets the goals you want. Some people will tell you you need to double your budget for the driver, and buy an amp that is 4x the power of your RF. But they are wanting you to have a competition setup. The reality is that for an everyday driver, and everyday listener (i.e. not trying to rattle windows at stoplights or do hair tricks), even moderately-priced subs in a proper box can perform really well. I have what would be considered two "junkers", but when scoped with an RTA, they are really quite smooth in their FR. They definitely distort when pushed too hard, but I'm not looking to make my hearing worse so I listen at "normal levels" (i.e. sometimes loud enough to make my scalp itch, but usually loud enough to give me a good kick in the pants"). Good luck in your quest. [/QUOTE]
