I've got a ARC Audio KS 300.4 Amp, (Arc Audio) and would like to know the best sub I could get for the amp. I was thinking an IDQ 12' but I would be open to any other suggestions. I have heard a JL W6v2 with 300 watts running to it, and I liked how it sounded, but I know I could spend less and get the same or better quality, I just don't know what brands are good these days as I've been out of the car audio loop for quite a few years. I would be happy to hear any suggestions anyone has.

I've got an eclipse 5030 head unit, and Cadence CWM-6 Components, and it's in a 03' Honda Civic Sedan.

 
Depends on at what load, but if at 2 ohm, an Incriminator Audio 187 would be very nice, I've got a 15" off of 400+ sealed and it's pretty loud //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

After doing a bit of research I'm stuck between the dcon, and the jbl gto, I'm leaning more towards the dcon right now, but I haven't heard either or these subs. Also someone is offering me a JL w3v2 for 125$ shipped, is that a good deal or pretty much the going rate for those? I've heard the w6v2 but I haven't heard the w3. If any of you have heard any of these is there anything really that would put one above the other? I like what I've heard about the ia 187's but it's going to be a 4ohm load. I'll probably end up getting a ported box. I appreciate all the feedback!

 
a DD 512 without doubt...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
I ran one in my integra for awhile. I ran it in .7cu ft sealed (before displacment lol) and it still got pretty loud and low. I was shocked.

I am also in Madison. What part of town?

 
125 isnt much off a deal for the w3v2, ive seen them new online at 160shipped for 2 of em. Memphis offers great sound quality, and I think at 350rms, a M3 or now a c3 I believe they are called would sound great
