Cheap subs

Okay, Im looking some some cheap hardhitting subs. When I say cheap Im talking less the 250 for a pair or maybe even one. Heres my I have a amp thats good for about 400x1@2ohms (USAcoustics).

I already have boxes for 12s one of my old infinity references are starting echoing. The other is okay. Im a cheap ass, so I want to try to stay in a lower price range and get some subs that hit fairly hard at the same time. Im not going for competition or anything. I just want something that I can feel.

Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe some Crunch Fatboys or something along those lines.

Those are 2 good choices..

Shiva = tried, tested and true. And would do well with 400w and wouldnt break a sweat.. Adire's products reflect insane build/material quality.

Elemental = excellent manafacturer, but I havent had the chance to play with the new Ks yet.

I'd go with a Shiva..

Thats cool.. I have no idea when I'll be seeing them.. None of my people have received them... for testing purposes..


RR, when are you planning to buy exactly.. If you want to wait a couple of weeks, some friends in NoCal will get to play with them real soon.. So I'll have some quality info on them..
