Default opinions on subs

ive got a 1000W monoblock amp... kenwood head unit.. i recently fried my12inchrockford fosgate p1's and im now starting to think im going to need some subs that are way more powerful..as this is the second pair ive fried (i had memphis also)

my p1's were loud which has me leaning toward rockford fogate p3's.....after looking at some sites and some local places here in st louis it looks like these are going to run me about $400..

or...i might do these 12" kicker cvr's for $300.. i can get a deal on em for about $260... even though right now money isnt really an issue

just looking for some opinions... im sort of stuck between these 2 options right now

i have two MTX thunder 5500's right now and i love them. MTX has a 7500 series two, and they are LOUD! and affordable. but if you really want to get a good sub. i would buy Kicker L7's. they are one of the best subs i have every came upon. i am currrently saving my money to get me a pair of them. the L7's are Kickers pride and glory! you can get the L7's on ebay for a very good price right now. i highly recommend the L7's. they are amazing! i heard alpine type R's at a competion and i was not satisfied. i thought the bass quality was poor. once i heard the L7's i have never considered another sub in my life. look into them you won't regret it.

check out JBL W10GTis or W12GTi's. They can handle a ton of power, get crazy loud, and are very tight, controlled subs. I personally love em, spent close to 450 for two W10GTi's, well worth it. You can check them out on the web, I havent seen a bad response on them. Make sure your amp can put the wattage out at a 1.5 Ohm load, if you run them parallel, they are dual 6 coils. These subs are the best I have owned so far.

my buddy just bought a pair of L7's 4 ohms and they pound! i am getting a pair of the two ohms myself but each L7 should be powered by its own amp.
so i am buying a kicker ZX750.1 amp it puts out 750 rms x 1 at 2 ohms. they would be so loud they could blow off clothes of women! got that line from the italian job
