After doing much much research on my own and posting a couple threads I realize there really isn't a thread/sticky that gives subs to look at within certain ranges (i.e $100 - $300). I know lots of folks here seem to post threads (like I did) looking for a sub for under xxx dollars.

The purpose of this thread is not to list specific prices (you are more than capable of finding the best deals on your own) but give you an idea of what subs are within certain ranges (i.e 0-100 dollars). This list will grow as I get more suggestions for subs. Please be patient with me regarding updating this as it may become a very big list.

Subs listings are as of now NOT in any particular order besides being in the correct price range. Do not assume if its listed as number one it is the best in that range, it simply was the first one I listed when I created the thread. They are mostly listed by manufacture and then price (i.e Premier Acoustic PA-120 is less expensive than the Premier Acoustic PA-10). I am going working on generating a list of subs 1k+ but its a work in progress so please be patient.

All links will be to manufacture's websites so you can look at all the listed specifications. Do not necessarily base what you will pay for the sub off the MSRP on the manufactures website, many of these subs can be found for way below the listed MSRP (unless they are only sold direct ) . If a sub is listed for 499 but is in the 100-300 range, it means that it is normally sold under its listed MSRP (Google is your friend). I will not be updating this list with locations of the best prices for these subs at any point. Shipping may or may not cost you, I am not going to go through and re-evaulate these for that factor.

I am going to try and not list as many Big Box Store offerings, but rather the Internet direct subs that seem to be recommended again and again here.

Please feel free to post other subs I should list. In your post please include the full model number and a link to the manufacture's website (will help me update things quicker)

.

At a later date I might also include links to any official AVSFORUM threads on specific models listed here (i.e. SVS PB-12NSD), to help you do more research, but I dont have the time right now.
