Default amp for stock sub with aftermarket headunit?

i had recently got the avic d1 installed in my 1998 lexus gs400. well i found out that i wont be able to use the stock sub thats located in the rear deck. So now i am trying to figure out how to get the sub to work. which amp would u recommend that will do its job without costing alot, maybe someone here has one for sale for a good price. please help asap, the music just doesnt sound as good as it would with the stock sub. the speakers are currently doing low frequencys and high frequencys.

please help asap.

I'm in the same boat brother and I feel your pain. I just installed the Kenwood KVT-910 Headunit and KNA-dv2100 Navi into my 99ES Coach and the mids and tweets are doing their job but it doesn't compare to the sub sound. I hear I have an 8" stock free air sub. Maybe you also have 8" or 10"? If so JL Audio is supposed to be a good solution and I'm also leaning on going that route this week along with grabbing a good amp to run it

I also will be having this problem soon. I was thinking of keeping the sub, its not too bad, but not great either, and just getting an amp for it. Then, if I blow the speaker, just replacing it. I don't need a TON of bass, but I would like some!
