What type of power do you have, also what type of enclosure are your subs in that you have now?

THIS is where the youth of today is taking us, people... Does ANYBODY understand a word of this? Jonathan, perhaps you should forget about car stereos and things like that, and dedicate a little time to your schooling. (My apologies to the senior members of the forum, but I feel our 12volt.com is slipping, and we need to take it back...)
Allow me to translate. I think he meant something like this:
I've got two Rockford Fosgate P2 12" woofers. I dont think they are loud enough. I was considering the Alpine Type X 12 inch woofer, the Kicker L7, and even the TC Sounds subwoofers, after hearing about those, on some other forums. I'd really like to spend less than $300 for a pair, but if necessary, I can spend more. Right now, I have the loudest system in my school, but I'd like it to be even louder. (I need to compensate.) What, in your opinions, are the loudest subs I can get, without breaking the bank? Thank you, everybody. Peace out.
It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Ok, right now you have 2 250wrms 12's and you want to get louder. You either need a ported box, or more power and better speakers, or larger speakers.
You definitely won't be dissapointed with the tc's. Elemental Designs is something to look into if you don't want to spend a whole lot on an amp because they are really efficient, nice SQ too. Their OV line would run you somewhere around 300 for two twelves and they can handle double the power of those fosgates and will sound a doodieload cleaner.
But you have a ton of options, a lot will get louder than those fosgates, but you have to be willing to put some money into powering them. Someone asked what you are using for power and without a response from that no one can really make any recommendations.
