What is a cheap set up from that site that would sound good and use that enclosure?

you get what you pay for...if you want good performance out of a speaker the enclosure is the main discerning factor.

If you are limited to a single 10" inch sub and a sealed enclosure I would not expect much from it.

What is your price limit for a subwoofer and amp?

I'm not totally set on a price just inexpensive, I'm still in high school and I just wanna get a bang for my buck. It doesn't really have to sound amazing I am just looking for something with a little more bass than what my 4 speakers in my truck make.

If you have any suggestions I am open to them

thanks

I'm putting on the flame suit for this one, but I've been in the poor high school kid world.

You can get amps by Profile for dirt cheap. Ugly and inefficient, but definitely will get the job done.

I've installed a few and years later, they still run strong, even though it really only puts out ~300w RMS @ 2 ohms. Just don't abuse them, and it'll be good enough to get you through high school.

Tie that to this guy and you'll have a decent starter system

Throw in $30 in wood and wire, and you have a full setup for $200.

Hope I helped a future SPL maniac. posted_image

I used to have a Profile Baja HA1000. Strong amp for 100 dollars and tough as balls. Beat the crap out of that amp and it never shut down.
