well, that depends on what you are looking for. If you want the most bass you can get and win some sound competitions, get some top-of-the-line rockfords, mtx, JL audio W6 or kickers. If you want good sound quality go for Infinity, mtx 6000 series, JBL, JL audio W3 and stuff like that

JLAudio 12W6's is a great choice and so is Kenwood DB's. I've had 12W6's and now have Kenwood DB's. Hard choice. The Kenwoods has a much higher S/N than the JL's and my whole system Excelon.

Since you already have a box that you want to use, it is important that you select subs that will work well in the box that you have.

For example, if the box has an internal volume of 3 cubic feet, then you should look for 3 subs that each want about 1 ft3 internal box volume.

This is an important factor in selecting subs that will sound good in your box.
