Looking for powered tube or box...whats best?

My girlfriend is looking for a bass tube or box, something like the inifinity basslink or a kenwood or bazooka tube. I'm riding around with a shiva off 600 watts in a custom sealed box that i built and she likes that but its a little much for her. Whats the best or at least a good tube or comapny that makes tubes?

Thanks in advance

The shiva is what I have in my car. I like it but she's looking for a tube for her car. I was just posting that as a comparison.

What kind of tubes are good?

The vacuum kind //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Seriously, with the number of small box drivers out there, bass tubes aren't needed anymore - not when you can get an RE8 in half a cubic foot or so //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Just get an 8 or 10 for her and seal it

Man my wife was all like "those things are too loud" and I was like "WTF! get back in the kitchen!!" then I woke up.

why a tube? all it basically is, is a small ported enclosure, just give her two slaps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif , Or ask for some money ( about 300 bucks ) for a new sub and just turn the gains down and say you bought a quieter sub. As for advice on bass tubes and such, i never used them, and when i heard them i had already heard high end stuff so i just laughed at them.
