need a new sub

I am looking to get a new sub. I currently have 1 12" Kicker Comp VR which is 400 watts rms 800 watts peak. The amp i just got is the audiobahn 800t which runs at 800 watts rms. I know not many of you like audiobahn but i got a good deal on it. I was actually looking into the audiobahn dub200 sub. it has 700 watts rms which is close to what i am looking for.

can anyone else recommend a sub that would rub around 700-800 watts rms and be decently priced. like around a $100 or so. I'm not looking to compete and i can't afford to spend $300 on a sub or else i would go big. thanks for any help.

one hundred dollar limit with a high rms power handling sub is hard to find. slickrick here is selling an adire audio shiva 12. power handling is 300 watts and a great SQ sub. i would get it, and be careful with the gains on the amp so you don't blow the sub with that 800 watt amp.

my 2 cents.

^^^ im 99% sure its sold. for $100 its REALLY hard to find a sub that can handle 800 watts rms (if thats the real power it will see). hmm id probably run the amp at 4 ohms assuming it makes 400 watts and get a used tempest (15" adire audio woofer).
