FYI, JL is not the best. FI BTL or Mayham.

I ran a few 12w7s and loved them. But the Fi Btl is a beast.

This!!
JL is popular, expensive and good but if you check out the SMD message board you'll see what kind of sick shit is out there! There are a lot of decent subs out there that will cost less than a JL but sound just as good.

Alpine is all i use for a deck and for low/mids/high. Fors subs i hav had good results from jl audio/hifonics/and a brand kinda unknown witch is quantum audio
Also rocksford dosgate has pretty good amps for subs i had two 15's cvrs in a custom box with a 2000rms brutus amp qnd my p3s hit way harder. Also my system blew away my cuzns we had same deck and amp but i had p3s he has cvx's. And my bass was wayy cleaner

I kno you OGs will remember the soundstream stuff. Well my buddy owns a stereo shop and wanted to test out sound streams new product so he used my car and I will say my 1 soundstream 12" sub at 1200 watts rms and matching digital am tears apart the to JLs I had in both db level and more importantly sound quality. It isn't exactly a budget setup if u don't have a hook up though

My biggest problem with Kicker subs are the fact I've seen SO many blown, way more than any other sub brand. The L7's are sick and I wanted a pair really bad but when I went into a shop to ask about them he showed me the mountain of them in the back that were blown. Along the way I've seen several other blown Kickers and that really turned me off to their subs. I've got a nice Kicker 4 channel for my mids and highs and I've been really happy with it.
