Opinions Needed Please...
Okay, here is the deal.....
I am in need of a subwoofer...I want a single 12 and that is all because I need the trunk space and don't want alot of weight. I was looking at the Polk MOMO MM12. It can be had for ~$215.00 online and ebay. It seems to get good reviews online.... and I like the idea that the enclosure is included and turned to the subwoofer.
It sounded pretty good @ Circuit City today and shold provide me with the tight bass I need as I prefer a sealed box. More information is HERE.
Since the Subwoofer/Enclosure handles 500 Watts RMS Maximum, I need a Decent Amp. I just ordered an Orion 4002 2 channel Amplifier. Info: 400 watts RMS (oroin is usually underrated) @ 4 ohms bridged. Got it for $249.00 + shipping. Damn thing is 18lbs and 18 inches long! INFO HERE
After my next paycheck. I am getting the AudioBahn A6004T 4 channel amplifier for my focal component set and rear 6x9s.
75 Watts RMS x 4 @ 4 ohms or 150 Watts RMS x 4 @ 2 ohms.
SPECS HERE

I was thining about that, but how much can I get a L7 for and an enclosure. Me = on tight budget. 
If I got a L7, then I would need a more powerful amp too...

you dont nec need a more powerful amp with abetter sub, which do you think would be better, constantly running a sub @ full potential or leaving rom for improvement in the future?
you cna find l7's online for like 180, and a box is gonan be like 80 bucks or less.
the l7's impressed me with the bass, altho not the sq I would like, but in a trunk you cnat hear sq anyways

Any opinions on the RF amp?
I am leaning towards the Polk MOMO becase it is cheaper and the box is really solid. Plus it is smaller in size, I am not loking for huge ammounts of bass.

The Box is made of 1" thick MDF and the plexi glass is 1/2" thick held with 26 allenwrench screws and an airtight gasket...

http://ikesound.com/Prod_Details.asp?Prod_Id=1162
$209 not bad of a deal.
You should check out www.ikesound.com , they have great deals. I just ordered Infinity Kappa components and coaxles and a RF amp from them. Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow.

Yeah, those solobarics will give you great bass... for like 3 days. all i hear about those is that they like to break. a lot. personally, i'm going to continue to whore jl and idq subs, but i've never heard the momo sub, so if you like it, go for it.

yes they do sound good but they also like to break, a friend of mine has 2 12" L7's, hes running a 1200 kicker amp not bridged and they have broke 2 times each so fare.
