Default 10" sub recommendations

Im replacing my custom full trunk box that have 2x12" dual coil Rockford subs with a box that uses 2x10" subs. Anyone have any recommendations on a good subwoofer that gives good bass, doesnt cost a ton, comparable to the Rockford subs?

MB Quart RSH 254 Subwoofers

I had one 12" MB Quart Discus sub in a sealed box, driven by 150 bridged watts, and it was both louder and cleaner than most things you can buy in a Best Buy. My friend had two 12" best buy subs (alpine maybe?) driven by 1000 watts and it couldn't touch my one 12" MB Quart. I will sing MB Quart's song forever based on that sub, and their incredible tweeters.

I need to just face the fact that the words "cheap" and "inexpensive" just dont work for me.

for ease of install and the ability to remove if need be I like 2 of these - Future Shop: Car & Marine Electronics: Car Audio Subwoofers: Infinity Self-Amplified Subwoofer System (BASSLINK)

I'm not a big fan of permanently mounting amps - others I'm sure don't feel this way though.

dont forget to buy your earplugs - lol

How are the sound on those? I just got his corner box cut for (1) 10" sub. I know you have 2....will I be happy with one of those? I'm only looking for good, solid, deep bass response INSIDE the car......no need to go beyond my 3 doors

You'll find a LOT of positive critical reviews of the JL 10W6V2 10 inchers. They are awesome.

The best sound Rockford subs make is the thud as they hit the bottom of a bumpster. Mid range JL's (w3's) will give you the best bang for your buck. Hell, a single 8w7 will hit harder that those rockfords...but the 10w3's are amazing also.
