[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8326035, member: 650438"] you dont need to get two subs. A single sub in a sealed box will not be impressing anybody SQ or SPL wise. However, a single sub in properly designed ported box will work wonders. For money reasons i'd say just keep the sub and get a good box along with a proper amount of power. There's a thing called box/impedance rise that really kills the output, read up on that. Another thing to consider is where the sub is firing at, makes a big difference too. SQL brands under 200 dollars would be C2 audio threatcon 2, american bass xfl, soundqubed hds300. I know the threatcon can get loud and sound good in a small 1 cubic feet, sealed box and get deeper bass in a bigger sealed box and even better when ported, totally beat out alpine type Rs and type Rs mop the floor with P3s. For high SQ, there's dayton audio HO, dayton audio ultimax, tc sounds epic 9 and if you stretch your budget, there's image dynamics ID or IDQ or a used JL W6(craigslist) [/QUOTE]
