Lookin for 10" to finish the system...need help

Here's my setup:

-Kenwood HU
-Infinity 4X6 in the front
-Boston Acoustic 6.5" in the rear

Im lookin for a 10" to add some bass to fill the low end. I don't need a lot of bass, probably around 200 watts with nice SQ. I would also like to spend under $200 with the amp and box included. Any suggestions guys?? I know the .org isnt gonna let me down...

-Ben

So many choices, and so many personal preferences...gonna be hard to do a sub, box, amp, wires, and install for $200 though, where do you plan on buying it? Custom shop? Retail store like CC or BB? Ebay? Cuz $200 will get you an amp at a retail store, thats about it.

What setups have you had in the past...its pretty hard to suggest anything on such little info. If you could provide any more thatd help

Yeah complete package deals are hard to come by for under $200, and anything you could get wouldn't be exactly worth it. Maybe a Bass tube would be up your alley. But depending upon which one you get would push that budget.

Overstock sub factory direct from Credence - $40 pair (you could sell one for $20).
Box from Sound Off Audio - $20 (order from their eBay store and it will be even cheaper)
280 Watt amp from US Acoustics - $105

With shipping and a Scoeshe (sp?) amp kit from Wal-Mart, you should be right around $200.

I was planning to buy all the stuff online. I was thinking maybe about getting an Infinity Basslink for close to $200 shipped off of Ebay. I haven't had a bass setup before and all suggestions are welcome.

thanks

If you want good SQ in a sub, you really won't find it for under $200 with a box. I would recommend an Adire Koda 10" with a sealed cubic foot box...probably cost you around $300 w/ box.

I did , I bought my 10" sub from Soundsplinter (http://www.soundsplinter.com/rli_ser...subwoofer.html) for $159 dollars, plus $10 dollars for shipping. It is an RL-i10 dvc. I bought a .7 cubic foot 3/4" MDF box for $30 dollars at a local shop. This sub puts out nice clean sound.
