If you still don't know look at all the sites and partners here. FI/AA, Sundown, DC, Skar, Obsidian, AQ...they are all great companies. You are not going to find someone who is going to make it so easy as buy this, this, and this.

You have a budget listed, posted where you want it, but with your budget I would like at two 12"s, an amp, enough for a headunit, wiring, box materials, and hopefully some left over to upgrade your front stage. Look at the brands on this forum and see what will fit your budget.

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

for daily driver two kicker l7s arent a bad choice :) heres a vid of mine doing some roof flex :D let me know what you think..l7s can get pretty loud and not very expensive

voice coils you must see what impedience your amp can go to to see if you should go for dual 2 ohm or dual 4 ohm the subs have no performance difference its all about how to wire them to the amp :) hoped it helped alittle

If it's $800 for only the subs and amp, with shipping and tax im assuming, then you probably want to run something like an Fi/DC/or AQ with like 1k-2k RMS that you can match an amp with, but thatll be tricky to keep right at $800. You can buy alot of stuff right here through SMD, pleanty of used stuff that'll last you and at a good price.

If your $800 includes sub, amp, box, and wiring and all that your gonna have to go a little smaller and cheaper.

Fucking love Alan you goddamned fucking super nerd lol

When Alan uses big words I don't understand

It's warming up enough that the donut-punching cyclist douchenozzles are getting their two wheeled fagmobiles out.

Everytime I see a guy driving a mini cooper I cant help but think he loves cock & (2/29/16)-My wife just bitched at me about throwing out things we don't really use. My response of well we don't really use your vagina so should we throw that out was evidently not the right response. I had to leave the room.

I missed Alan.

RIP 5/29/15 - I love you son.

A Fi BL would be pretty good

Plus a Hifonics Brutus 1700

That leaves a fair chunk left over for some Knu wire :)

Id prefer to just get new stuff. No offense but I don't always trust ppl. But if I'm running close I might need to go used. And thanks guys. But I can sucker my dad into paying shipping. And box cost is not an issue.
