Depends how much you want to spend.

Do you want it to be right or just add some bass?

Adding bass can be fairly cheap, ideas of cheap differ

If you want really good sound across the entire bandwidth it won't be cheap.

 

[sounds_explicit]

if your on budget there are a few good named brands that sell decent subs for under $200

rockfords

american bass has a few models that are under $200 that do well for the money

memphis

kickers only a cpl models tho are worth it.

opinions.

it doesnt seem like hes wanting to go all out. just add some more bass.

they arent bad brands if you pick the better models they offer.

if he listed a budget we would do better possibly. but not everyone wants the best of the best gear out. ive heard crappy name brands that people would trash brand new sound good in certain rides with proper installation.

It's not opinions. Look at what they are really made up of. Weak and cover ups to make them look good to the uneducated buyer. You don't get what you pay for. You get a name that sold out a long time ago.

Tell me what you would buy and I'll show you why it's junk

Decent 15. Grab a soundqubed and amp to match. I mean endless possibilities can be made, budget will help narrow down.

At $200 price point I would recommend Soundqubed HDS300 or a Rockford Fosgate P3, but yeah NoLoud presented several questions that need to be answered before these nice guys can really be helpful. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Tons of 15's out on market.

i would never give a penny to Rockford.

They prey on the ignorant and make a killing doing it.

Lots of companies do the same. We will just make it a quick one. Walmart.

you kidding me

or am i just unfamiliar and it looks to be overpriced for a 500w rms sub with a 2.5 inch coil

Diamond at one point made really solid products, and some of their amps which were OEMed by Esoteric are good sq stuff. I don't know about the new stuff, but at that price point I wouldn't expect anything amazing.

That's understandable. I think Rockford makes a few solid products, but I know they are a publicly traded company and as such their #1 priority is profit margins.
