What do you think of Boss audio subs? What is the best 10-inch subwoofer under $100?

Would not suggest them spend the extra money and get a good name brand. Remember you get what you pay for. If you tell me you budget I can try and help you find a good quality sub in you price range.

Sorry I must be blind didn’t see that last line might want to check out the Audiobahn ALUM10Q very good sub with a reasonable price ALUM10Q on eBay However beware that if you don’t buy from a authorized dealer you wont have a warrantee. If you want a good price with a warrantee check out Just Audiobahn But Before I can make more suggestions need to know what kind of amp you have to match it to a sub.

I want to have 100 to 150 watts rms. I'm going to put it in a small truck and extreme powere is not really a concern. Quality sound is what I'm after. I also thought about 8-inch subs. What do you think of CDT Audio MS-80?

That’s a much better choice than the Boss but I would suggest the 10 instead of the 8

I read some very good customer reviews on ads 310rs. The recommended power is a little more than I was after at first but I'm flexible. So what do you think of ads?

You can’t go wrong with ads their name is at the top of the list for both quality and reliability. If your considering them and their in your budget then I would say go for it.

Rockford Subs are nice. Not overly expensive either.

I found that Boss subs are good. People think boss is junk, butt i have run boss amps and subs for years and they slam hard. The sub 20's have a 6 year warr on them. rf wont do that. check out bossaudio.com and see for yourself. you don't have to spend a lot of money for some slam. Boss used to be less than up and up but that was before ava took over. the same co owns planet audio.

i agree with big dave, the boss subs are great for the average consumer and they are very efficient so you won't need a big amp to push them. although they are not even close to competition quality they will do the job fine. if you want a good quality sub that slams at an affordable price i would recommend the cadence ud10 or beast over fosgate or audiobahn.
