I think everyone is forgetting about the Lanzar Opti-1522D/1222D subs. Although the ONLY good subs out of all the ones mentioned on this thread, as they should be for $300, just thought they deserved a mention //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif To the OP, are your boxes ported or sealed? Them Pyles will sound much better in a sealed I bet. Less output, but MUCH better SQ. I know the frustration of being on a tight budget too, but after blowing up a Power Acoustik in one week, I realized with car audio, you are never paying for JUST a brand name. When I started out, I thought Kenwood and Pioneer were top of the line lol, until I heard some DC Level 4's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
