Some peoples opinions are based on fact though just like in the performance section. At least from what I've seen posted here so far. There are proven combinations of things that work and things that don't work just like in the performance section. There are several people on this forum that know what they are talking about and give good advice on products they use or have heard in person which I would say is more based on fact than opinions. So when it comes to opinions coming from certain people here you can bet it is good advice. Just like in the performance forums.

JBL makes a great sub as well! As stated ^^^ a budget helps to determine alot! The ones I posted are in the less expensive range but a quality 15" sub is not cheap.

Exactly, basically you get what you pay for.
Good, clean, hard hitting sub = $$$$$ + $$$$$ for the amp, a speaker is only as good as the amp(aka the signal it receives)
