Need help picking out a cheap sub/amp combo to finish up system

[A4GY 10+ year member]

Hi guys its been a long time since I posted here but I need your help. I used to have an Audio Mobile EVO-R 12inch sub with a JBL 1200.1 amp. It sounded great but was a little to much for me. Not to mention I blew the sub anway. I have been living without a sub for a while and have decided its time to put another one in the car. I am thinking probly just a single 10inch sub is all I really need. I listed to the JL W3 V2 10inch sub at a local car audio shop and really like the sound of it. What do you guys think of that sub? I would like to pick up a nice 10inch sub and an amp for it for $400.00 or less if possible. Please let me know what you guys think would make a nice combo for that price range.

My car is a 1998 Audi A4 with the following already installed:

Kenwood KDC-5019 Single CD Head Unit

MB Quart DSD 213 Front Component Speakers

MB Quart RKC 116 Rear Coaxal Speaks

Rockford Fosgate Power 750x Amplifier

Any help you guys can give me would be awsome!

W3v2's are solid little subs...little lacking in the output category for me, personally, but whatever you like...

Koda10 is supppose to be an -amazing- little sub. Being touted as possibly one of the best SQ subs ever made, or so Im told. If I were shopping for a 10, that would be the first one I'd look at for your price range.

After reading around the board some more it looks like the koda 10 might actually be what I am looking for. I was wondering what you guys think the best amp for the koda 10 would be though?

Thanks again for the help!
