JL for sure but they are a bit more pricey.

What is your price range? Are you going with 8, 10, 12, or 15" How much power will you have available. Would you consider one subs instead of a pair? In many cases one high end sub will out preform 2 lower end subs.

Are you looking for sound quality or just plain loudness. Or perhaps a mixture of both. Like 40% SPL (or loudness) and 60% SQ (sound quality)

Once you determine the goals and limits that you have we can be able to suggest the right sub for you.

i was thinking of spending hopfully under $500. either with 2 10" or 2 12" depeneding on the price will consider a single 12". right no i have a jbl 1200.1 amp that will power whatever sub i decide on. also looking for sq but want some spl so a mix.
