    it all depends on price and whether you want SQ or SPL (or the much more difficult and expensive SQL)

    Start looking in the magazines at what the winners are using.

    and just as importantly - if not more so - how they're using what they have... i.e. tuning and setup can make or break the car...

    The winners are using everything. You see just as many winners with Kicker as you do Orion as you do Crossfire as you do RF and on and on.

    If youre going for SPL, the install and box construction will be the primary factors and much more important than what brand they are.

    Pretty much the same with SQ. All the major brands are making very good gear these days so youll be fine with whichever you decide. Go listen to some subs and pick the one you like best.
