Sub for a Newbie

[cae236 10+ year member]

Lately ive been looking for a 10in/12in sub for my 1996 jetta for around $200 and would be willing to spend another 200 for an amp. I do not have very much knowledge with subs and what to look for. For that price range what would you guys recommend? I was thinking for the sub a JL Audio 10W3v3 but not sure if there is better for the price. Im looking for the sub to be nice and clear but at the same time have a good hit to it! Thanks for all your help guys!

No JL... Id suggest looking around here for a couple days to see what brand names pop up and then see what you would have an interest in...

I really like that sub. You guys really gave me a lot of new brands ive never heard of before. Do you think a 10in sub like that would be sufficient enough in my jetta or should i go up to a 12in? I mainly listen to rap and dubstep. Also, Do all those companies make good amps and if not what brand names are good amps? Thanks so much for all your help guys!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
