im willing to spend about 450 on sub(s).what do you guys think i should go with.im looking for it to be loud and i also want some SQ.i currently have a hifonics brutus 1500 amp,so an amp is not an option for now.maybe something that would match that amp perfectly.

well i posted this another thread yesterday so i'll just copy/paste it here

"Just got back from testing my Rs ***ABSOLUTELY PLEASED !!!!!!*** about them - bass hit so low freq & shweeeeeeeeeeet !

Funny though i was pushing em with a 6/7 yr old Power Acoustic 2 chan amp which rated i guess around 100wrms/chan & even with that lil power they played well & they weren't even seated flat on the box baffle board (temp held down with 4 screws )cause d cutout hole now needs to be about 1/8 wider now .

Been sitting in my ride past 2.5 hrs bumping out various tunes from reggae/pop/bass testing tunes to a few low bass hip hop songs - ooooh my ears are feeling like cloudy now .

Imagine when i power it fully - could possibly b too much bass - lol ....."

Even not fully powered -i luv it & thats enough bass 4 me personally . My ride is a wagon btw so interior acoustics does have a good advantage over reg sedans .......

i asked that rovin only because i see it on ebay for 200 (2 dvc 4 ohm type R's) and thats a really good price.kind of leaning on getting those or some JL's.

yea - no problem ,bro

thats a great price cause the lowest i seen em online each was $134 shipped .

they are the best value 4 $ subs around right now apart from that Dec REsubs sale - u could get 2 of those SE 600wrms 12s & it should be louder than the Rs .......
