Which subs would you recommend?

Ok guys I am runnin a 1200 Watt, 2 channel amp. It gives 600 watts peak to each channel, and the ohm output for the 2 channels is 2 ohms. I recently blew out 2 "testing" subs. I am lookin for 2 new good 12" subs to replace them with. I was lookin at these Audiobahns. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3046914025
The only question I have on these, is that they have a paper cone. Will the paper cone deteriorate quicker than most other cones?

I was also lookin at these rockford fosgates http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3047681854

I really don't want to spend more than $150, so if you guys have any info on good subs for a decent price let me know. Thanks.

The price is relative to the goodness. For that reason I can't recommend anything. The paper cones are likely coated to resist moisture. I wouldn't stress over papers durability.

Go with the Rockford Fosgate HE2 Thats what I was using in my 91 max SE until it got totalled...those subs hit HARD and DEEP, I didn't have to use one ounce of dynamat anywhere on the car it just didn't rattle...I brought mine from Best Buy when I was working for them last year, but my didn't look as pretty as those in the pic. I was also using the Rockford Fosgate 700s amp to power those bad boys. My HE2 were 10" subs but they hit hard...I've heard 12s but I perfer the 10s. Also get a ported box for them don't go with the enclosed box...but it depends on the music u like.
