Which would you guys rather have a pair of in your vehicle? Also, feel free to throw in some others that are in this price range (under $100) if you feel there are better speakers for the price.

Comp VR: 400w RMS/800w max ($54.99)
10W1v2: 125w RMS/250w max ($84.99)

Those you mentioned are entry level subs.

The jl is more sq oriented.
The kicker's performance depends on the instal. They generally tend to get loud with limited sq

I've seen setups with kickers sealed and producing moderate sq. and others where they were ported and got loud.

Then again your taste may differ from mine ...
Other variables must be taken into consideration..

vehicle type
available box space and box preference.
amplifier
speaker size
etc

With little power the jl's would sing.
The kicker would need a tad more to maintain the sq.

sq- jl
sql- cvr

My box is a shallow mount box with very little cubic feet. It's an mtx thunderform.

How much louder will the CVR's be than the JL's? This wattage difference between the two subs seems like the CVR's would be a lot louder, due to being more than twice as powerful.

None of them are gonna be real loud. The JL should have the best SQ.

I'm thinking I will go with the Comp VR's to save $60, being as I'm on a college budget (probably about to be in the red financially lol). Hopefully I won't regret it...I'm ordering this afternoon, so I don't have much time to think about it haha.

Another thing, though, is I'll have to buy a more expensive amp for the Comp VR's. What would be a good amp for them?
