In that case if i will get new sub in the $300 price range i'll get one of this:

Fi BL 15" or 18" with the cooling option or a Fi Q for better SQ.

SSA Icon

15" Kicker L7

18" Audioque HDC3

For the amp i wont look any further this is what i have and i like a lot, i'll take the upgrade:

Audioque AQ2200D

Yes, like any of those subs but the AQ will handle the AQ2200D...

i woudln't go any higher then a 12. when you start going 15 or 18 your recoil time slows down and the bass might sound sloppy.

Wrong.

Still a false statement...totally sub, enclosure, and install dependent.

Saying that is an 18 inch sub is "slower" than a 10 inch sub is a myth.

Done correctly an 18 inch speaker will be just as fast/quick/transient as a 10 inch speaker.

My last setup of a single 18 ported was tighter and quicker than a lot of 12 inch setups I've heard.

Read up people...learn something.

Correct

saying a sub is slower was correct back in the '90's, but since then with bigger magnets and stronger ones, subs of all sizes are equal now.

Hell in a perfect world (Which I will live in one day ) Id be running 1-2 18" Kicker Solo-X's, with a 4000.1 amp to each of them....

Check out the Elemental design 13Av.2 D2. Its on sale now with a 1200 watt amp for $500 for the pair. This sub weighs 50 lbs has a 5 yr warranty & gets real loud. I plan to use one in my F250 crew cab in a 2 cubic ft ported down firing box in place of my console. I've seen one in a 4 door Ram. Its flexing the sheet metal.
