Default Please help me match a sub with my setup…

I have a JL Audio 250/1 (250 RMS) Slash Series amp and a Pioneer headunit. I am looking to match a single 10” sub with this setup to put in a stealth box in the hatch. I am looking for something that hits hard but is also clean sounding. Something less than $130 or so. Not really a fun of kicker either.

JL 10w0v2

250w RMS is the nominal power level rated by JL for the w0. Perfect match. Otherwise Kenwood makes a hell of an entry level sub.

I personally would stick with JL. I only use JL and love their stuff. I would suggest a 10w1v2 or possibly a 10w3v3, if you can find it used for cheap.

Eclipse has pretty reasonably priced 10s. Honestly though, 250wrms and loud don't really go together. You could probably get enough money from your amp to get something that has some more power.

For your setup I would suggest the JL audio W3.
It is designed to work in a small enclosure & it doesn't
need a ton of power.
I think you can find them new on ebay for around $140.
