Jbl gt5

Hi everyone I'm on a very tight budget and was looking for some cheaper audio when I stumbled across JBLs GT5 Series it looks like basic but quaulity equipment. Problem is I can't seem to find any place that would carry anything but some coaxial speakers(JBL only lists the states on thier site). SO my question is does any one know were I could get a brand spanking new in the box JBL GT5-10D Sub to go with the GT5-A3001 Amp I have???
Thanks for any help you can give.

The question I would ask is, where are you at? There are plenty of car audio shops in Ontario

Sorry about not mentioning that. The middle of no were is about a acurate description lol. But closest town is Cobourg. All we have as far as I know is walmart with Dual, low low low end pioneer, and sonys. Canadian Tire same sort of deal and finaly Showtime........And that place I wouldnt trust as far as I could throw it. But they cary kicker, kenwood and some mid range pioneer.
So that is why I'm kinda wondering if anyone knows of a shop in Oshawa or Peterborough that might carry this product line. If not maybe a reputable online retailer who ships to Canada.

No not really but since I have a GT5-a3001 amp at the moment that is a perfect match to that sub I figured hey why not. Since most JBL I've heard sounds decent my reasoning was thier lower end should still sound better then say some walmart sony xplod s lol.
And can't say I know what the J, B or L stands for

Best Buy. The GT5's are low low end JBL. I'm 99.99% convinced you could find 10x the quality used, especially here. The members usually have great gear.

LOL well thanks guys. You got me lol def not worth the hassle of trying to find these things.
What I'm looking for is a decent (doesn't need to be astounding just round out the music properly)sq sub that will run in and around 300rms (depending on ohms I may need a new amp as well lol) But I was hoping around $100 for a single 10"
