what type of sub does everyone have?

Just wondering what a common watt/ohm sub and amp combo everyone has.. also what is a good price for a full setup going to run me? I just want one 10"+enclosure and an amp.. anyone have something for sale or recommend I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm a big noob on this stuff, so if it's already been discussed don't flame me.. I tried searching but couldn't find the answer I wanted.. link me to another thread if you don't want to respond. Thanks!

anyone selling anything used or for a good price.. im just looking for 1 10" sub and an amp to power it, for some good bass.. i've got about $600 to spend total including installation, so I was hoping to find a used 4080 enclosure as well.. let me know if you have something for sale!

kickers look nice, but everyone seems to say JL are the best, but they cost a lot more huh.. so what should i do? should i look for used JL equipment or buy new kicker stuff? or antoehr brand?

You aren't a n00b so it's hard to abide the type of questions. Speakers are subjective. Some people love JL, some don't. Go audition some subs at a local shop, then find the right price. Lots of resources if you use the afore mentioned search.
