    Looking to upgrade my pair of 12" Pioneers.

    I'm quite new but I have the basics down. Only thing is, I don't know jack about what a higher end sub would be. I got my two 12"s on Ebay for 20$ each and I've recently saved enough up to upgrade a bit. I'd like to stay with 12 in. however, I prefer the way they work in the mid-range.
