JL Audio is probably the best I've heard. I have a Planet Audio BB12 that I'm really happy with.

check the site the L5 is the lowest grade square sub that they make. soloX cost a ton of money though, but the 18" can handle 10,000watts

jl audio has some affordable stuff and their bass always sounds nice. even their cheaper subs, like the w3v2, isn't something to laugh at IMO

tight clean bass that hits hard for the price definetly goes to the w0/w1...
Rockford power t2 for clean lows, and loud if you are willing to shell out the cash...

it depends on what you want out of yours subs/how much you are willing to spend...

if ya both know so much about kicker you'd know the solo X, sx18 handles 5000 watts and is generally an SPL sub

wow you really are dumb ___, there is a difference between what you should put to it, and what it can handle, you would on;y put 10,000 watts to it if you were going for spl, and it would only be for a short burst of time
