I would look at the Alpine SWS-1241/JL Audio 12W0-4 and hook it up to a small two-channel amplifier (US Acoustics USX2080, perhaps ?)

 

That would be under $200 (Including if you build your own box) ... You should also check out eBay ...

Bring that 12 down to 10 inches and there ya have it.

ya if u dont want anything fancy, get a 10 or two. and id get at least a 200 watt amp.

if you look in crutchfield, they occasionally have GREAT deals on 2 subs when bought together. like they where sellin some rockford fosgate subs, two 10's for like 100 bux, two 12's for 125, and two 15's for 150. i know they sell the visonik subs two for like 50 bux, but i dont know how great they are.
