Trying to buy a sub+amp... (new to this) Budget around $450

[Lukas913]

Im not sure where this thread goes, but move it if its in the wrong place. I have a bit of money and i would like the setup to be less then $450. Im new to the whole subwoofer thing, and my scion tc 2012 already has a good stock sound system. The speakers actually hit pretty good, but i want them to hit the lows even harder. (i dont want my whole song to go BRRR BRRR if you know what i mean) The trunk is obviously not sealed off the car so is that an advantage? Like i want the sound and the vibration to balance out and not just in the back. Anyways could you guys help me out on what setup i could get that could be pretty loud and hit the lows hard? I listen to hiphop,dubstep,trap,chillstep, house, techno, etc. I just listen to w/e sounds good haha.

thats a tiny budget... i'd try to find good used stuff on here first, if you want new... kenwood 3013ps or kenwood xw12 are both awesome budget subs, 2 12s are around $100, think i paid 89.00 for 1 set and 99.00 for the other, then grab a mb quart onx amp or a hifonics and you'll be good, that budget is LOW but you could definately get a decent system, check here first for good used, if not explore some of the options i mentioned... i enjoy my kenwoods...

I really dont know anything about what to buy lol. Would $450 be good? Im looking on ebay and i saw kickers for around $470 that look pretty decent... I want sound quality also.
