    Elemental Designs, Epik, SVS, HSU, Outlaw - all incredible subs in your price range.

    The mini may be a tad on the light side for the 7's. I don't think you'll have that wow factor like you would with an Epic, SVS, Elemental Design, HSU, etc.

    The Mini V is a sick nasty little sub. One who has not heard it needs to. if you have a small to medium size room, the Mini V will fill it with nice thumping bass. Despite it's small size, it's large in pressure.

    I suggest finding 2 of them.

    Sub....the pioneer has plenty of juice for the 7's, not that an amp wouldn't be beneficial, but you'd get a better bang for your buck sound wise with a good subwoofer.
