if u dont want re audio,

digital design (willbe more than your budgetz)
ficaraudiio
amercan bass
some treo ssx but they need alot of watts
atomic apx

not these speakers will giv you 150, u have to make a good box and give it good power 150 its not easy and even the best subwoofer ull need to have a good set up, i seen 4 15 cant even get to the 140's because of their poor install

yeah you can't go wrong with the re sx 18 man. the sq is decent and the output is unbelievable. i gotta find a place to get mine metered. i am only giving it 1000wmrs and it feels like my back windshield is going to pop out. i can't turn it up too loud cause i am afraid something in my car will break. lol.

the ssi sounds better than the re sx. alot better. don't get me wrong the sx isn't that bad sounding. its just the ssi has awesome sq. but the sx gets louder than the ssi by alot.

my single re sx 18 powered with 1000wrms gets just as loud as when i had 2 ssi 12s with 2000wrms. it also hits deeper.

a sub i do want to try out real bad is the ssi 18 though. i think it will sound so clean and deep. i've only heard the 12 inch ssi so i don't really know what the 18 inch will sound like. big difference between 18 inch and 12 inch subs.

ya thats true.

another question is should i get the kicker zx1000 for like 370 shipped (new) or the jbl 1201.1 II for 330.

kicker will do 1000 @ 12v. jbl will do 1114 @ 14.4v (new).

jbl has 120a in fuses, kicker has 100a....

the jbl is cheaper so go with the jbl. they are both good amps. i prefer kickers but thats just me. i am a fan of kicker amps. they underrate their amps so much.

ya the jbl is 40 dollars cheaper, but i dont know if i just want to spend the extra 40 dollars, cause i think it might be worth it.
