i still think that a 10" mtx with a nice 300 watts rms amp will be just perfict for you, plus cheaper caz you can get it local, but if your willing to pay for shipping im sure you can get a better deal

You can pick up an Alpine MRP-M450 for $180 + Tax as well. Not a bad amp for the price.. I don't believe. :P

i say if you are on a budget, just go to futureshop and get one of those 399.99 installed packages. They are not too bad, i used to have it in my dad's Regal, a JVC MDG-510 head unit, 2 channel MTX road thunder amp(don't laugh) and a 12 inch MTX sub in a sealed box. It actually did pound for my liking, and that's all i needed. If that's out of your budget, then try finding used ones, they go for pretty cheap, i remember i sold that whole set for $150, head unit, amp and sub with box.

craig's list, kijiji, buy and sell, and the f/s section on most car and car audio boards...guaranteed to find a hella deal...hell i've sold really good equipment for peanuts, just because I was changing set ups....$300.00 Alpine decks for 80.00, 200.00 subs for 50.00, 300.00 component sets for 100.00, a 400watt MTX amp for 80.00. Just look around man, there's always good stuff for cheap on here. In fact there's a guy selling a JBL 15" gti sub and box for 200.00, clarion deck for 100.00...the first post man...assuming good condition...hella deal! All you'd need is a decent used 400 watt amp and you gots tunes!!

Would a Virtual Reality Amp – VRA4.0 be able to power the sony sub i mentioned?

because i found a guy on this site with that amp for sale for nice and cheap and it would be nice to get at that price if it worked

Well.. the VR only puts out 400 Watts Peak Power vs. the Pioneer or Alpine that run around 400 Watts RMS.
