Ok Ive been browsing around for a few days. Ive got it pretty much narrowed down. Im trying to stay right around $120. Ill be going with a pair of them. Ive got about 250@4 ohms, 500-700@2 ohms, and about 1200-1400@1 ohm.

Heres what Im looking at and a price:

MB QUART RWE-202 RF made 8" sub. $60 a piece

MA Audio 83XE 8" $90 for 2

RE REx 8" $49.99 a piece

POLK AUDIO 8" DB840 $55 a piece

Acoustic Audio BASS series $60 for 2

Im trying to run at 2 or 1 ohm. Space savings is a big must, but Id like to run ported boxes tuned around 33Hz for daily. Im hoping a pair of these will save space and produce the nice loud lows I get with my DC Level 4 15" D2 tuned at 33Hz.

 
Thats what I was thinking. I had it narrowed down to MBs, RE, or the MAs. The MBs would be getting about 250-350RMS. If its the higher end its over powering them. I like the REs for the .5 cube size for a ported box.
