I recommend the Boston Acoustics G2 or G5. I have a 12' G2 with a Kenwood 800w amp and its kicks a$$. I wanted the G5, but its a little pricey. You get waht you pay for though.

NOW NOW BOYS all that big talk about big wattage and subs is all fun and games till someone gets an eye put out. i used to do this sound system crap competition and if he wants hard hitting bass that catches good rap bass which is on the lower frequency range 90% of the time, i would go with 2 12" kicker comp vx dual coil 4ohm , wired parallel, that way hes running a 2ohm a speaker and run a 1ohm stable amplifier mono bridged. alot of people dont care for them, but i liked running the autotek mean machine 1400.1 and would highly suggest it to anyone. the box must be as close to specs as possible and i have a box building program i can send via email upon request. it needs to be sealed from the inside with liquid nail or caulking so that when the subs are installed if compressed they will depress slowly. try to build a box firing straight back towards the rear and you will need a 2 farad cap atleast. the l7 have a break in period most people dont realize where the comp vx are plug and play. i had this amp on two comp vr last years woofers 12" and in two weeks the voice coils were roasted. the comp vx will hold up just fine to the wattage for this amp you just might have to keep it at 3/4 gain. we bench tested my amp at 1407 watts rms at 1 ohm. alot of amps say they are 1 ohm stable but are not the autotek is. besides the comp vx are compared to the L7. the subs and amp make a really good looking installation. you can get em cheap on ebay both subs and amp.

Go with Kicker, thats all I have to say. Oh and dont buy it from ebay. If you blow that sub your SOL. No warranty. Buy it from a car audio shop

Caps are a waste of money!!!!!!!!! Also, set your gain by using a DMM, or O-scope, not by ear. Gain improperly set is what blows amp/subs, not wattage per se. Setting your gain too high will produce clipping. And yes I do know a little about car audio. I do compete.

sorry to jump in but IMO Dimond Audio, or tREO is the way to go my (2) 12's Dimond Audio and (2) 1000 rms JL amps are the loudest.
They Can make my brothers ears bleed....
