Here's my choice

Shiva
Alpine
Infinity

Both the Shivas and Alpines are a good bang for the buck sub, but the Shivas hit harder and handle a little more power. The main thing to consider is that the Shivas need a huge box. Something like 1.25 or 1.5 cu.ft. wheras the Alpines will work in a much smaller enclosure. I'm not really a fan of Infinity subs. Heard too many failure stories, although they are known for their sq abilities. But still, not even in my top 10 of all sub brands.

so far everyones said that shivas would be the best subs for me so i decided to read up on them some more.

i read about them on the adire site and it says it has a rms of 650 and each voice coil is 8 ohms... why is the ohms so high? what is the point of having ohms greater than 4 other than so i have to pay more for an expensive amp/s? i currently have a lanzar vibe 1200d

and don't think i can fully power even one shiva let alone two. please let me know what you think. thanks again for all your help!
