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".

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.
