Personally, I've never been a fan of Infinity subwoofers. I have two of the HE2 10" subs and really like them. If you are going to buy the speaker seperate and then buy a box to put it in, the 12" HE2 is the way to go. However, I'd actually consider buying a Type R that comes factory mounted in the box. The box is made to produce the best possible sound from the sub, and REALLY bumps. I almost got one myself ---> http://www.smartcart.com/alneds/cgi/display.cgi?item_num=SBR122CRIf you shop around, I'm sure you can find a mounted Type R cheaper than that online.
I'm just a crosshair I'm just a shot away from you

That's gotta be big boomin'! I just have two 10" Pioneer subs, they get the job done and I usually have them set fairly low and they produce good sound.. though I may turn 'em up since it's summer.

What about Polk?
Alpine has been known to have longevity, so I would go with Alpine out of the three, but I've never heard how they sound.
