actually, i have used alpine, pioneer, polk audio, as well as numerous others. I have a kicker psr 80 sitting in my living room that will knock your liscense plate off, why? because it is properly matched for the enclosure....The sound quality from each speaker must be matched with the enclosure rated for that speaker. I never said others were not of any quality, but for a fosgate amp, either fosgate subs or if you have the money and can afford to import one a simple bose 10" which will have to be ordered especially from germany ( giving them the specs for your enclosure as well as trunk air space.) it usually runs around 1500.00 for this 10" sub designed for your car.

Before you call someone moronic you should check and make sure that person does not have just a little more information than yourself.

Fosgate amps are designed specifically for fosgate subs, that is what runs the best on the amp. As for enclosures and placement that is up to the type of music listened to and desired bass effect.

as well i didnt say fosgate's were my fav speaker,,,i prefer alpine,,,,but they just dont give the sound or durability...
