i personally know someone who has a pyle amp and 2 subs, and it sounds like complete crap. not loud and not clean at all. plus, the amp goes dead if he really gets on it for too long. never had any experience with the tubes, but from what i've seen with the current stuff, i doubt it's very good. the crazy part is they have gotten way better than they used to be. save up and get something better you won't regret in a few months.

i have a buddy with a 10" audiobahn tube he got new on ebay for like $100 shipped with a built in amp and an amp kit, and it hits and sounds pretty decent in his xa. might want to keep your eyes peeled for one.

Lightning Audio used to make excellent product because it was OEM'd by TC Sounds.

And TC Sounds > RF, IMO.

But Pyle = cheeeeeap. If you want something cheap, by all means get cheap.
