Default Best Sub woofer Brands...

Can anyone tell me a decent, reasonable priced sub woofer along with an amp.
I dont want too much wet bass but I do want a clean deep bass along with having trunk space. I'm only intrested in purchasing one 12".

L7's are not what you would call clean by anymeans. sure its loud and boomy, but not clean. image dynamics FTW.

I agree, Image Dynamics IDMAX or anything from Adire Audio, especially the Brahma and Tumult lines.

JL Audio, RE, Adire Audio, DLS (very under-rated), Phoenix Gold Titanium line up from 2004, Image Dynamics are just a few that come to mind .

For the audiophiles, all of the above are great choices. But for someone on a budget who wants a decent sub and amp. Go with Alpine. Type R 12" and pick up an Alpine amp. Great system and much cheaper than those mentioned above.
