Default Replacing my old 12"s

Frankly, my old 12's aren't hitting like they used to. I'm running an american bass machine amp that is rms 200w x 2 (hot shiite, i know ). I'm looking to just replace the 12's because the amp still seems to be accurate. but if i find a good price on an amp, i may spring for it.

I need accuracy, but i also want to be able to push them. cause lets face it, we all like to be able to show off once in a while. I love a strong deep bass that you can feel in your chest. Its been about 5 years since i had to choose my subs, so to be honest i have no idea whats on the market. so i need some recommendations on 12's and keep in mind i may upgrade to a higher wattage amp later on. my price range for the subs is between 300-500 bucks for a pair

www.edesignaudio.com. I have used to have 2 of their e12k's, sealed...and they sounded fantastic. I got metered at 144.7DB w/ the 2 12's, and a JL1000/1 amp. If your looking for some good SQL, then you need to check into their products. I think you can pick up a pair of 12's, and a JBL 600.1 and be doing alright You CANNOT go wrong w/ their subs. Hope that helped some. Peace.
