That would be a relatively good comparison, not super accurate as they are completely different subs... but definately on the same level.
As far as RE goes... It's not the products, it's the idea...
RE went from a very personable company that cared for the customer and the dealers to some huge conglomerate that only cares about the money aspect... they raised their prices and the customer service went down hill... The products are by all means still top notch, but that's why FI started, because they couldn't handle the way RE went :)

What about AA assassins or Mach5 audio?? Both are good budget subs that don't need a lot of power. I have 2 8" assassins in a ported box and they sound good and get pretty loud. 12's would be much better but GF didn't want to lose that much trunk space.

Hell, I have even heard that the Dayton series from Partsexpress.com is a decent sub. Look into those too.

Thought I might mention too that Bill is sitting on EA Executions (12"s and 15"s) right now... Check em out in the For Sale thread $275 for a 12" shipped is one hell of a deal :)

I believe they're a lot like the old Adire shiva/tempest. My first "real" sub was a 15" tempest in a 4^3 box @24Hz. Sounded amazing, got low, and was pretty darn loud. I still have it in that box sitting in the garage and have offered it to a few local kids for $75, but since it's not Dual or some other BB sub they aren't interested. Their loss....

The ex's are right up your alley for the price of them!! That price is below dealer cost by the way. I second Mike's reccommendation of these subs, very very very excellent subs. They are loud and sound pretty darn good too.

Wasnt bill selling the fifteen for 375 a while back? If i remember correctly, that and if you dont have an execution dealer in your state its a good chance you can call and get a hell of a deal on them. They offered a 15 for 325 for more of an advertising purpose. I wish i had the money then i would have jumped on the idea!

Bill is a dealer and was selling them for the exact same price you listed. He wasnt just selling one, he was offering a special on the subs. $275 for a 12" and $325 for a 15".... and you can still get that price.... talk to Bill about it.
