What are the best of the following:
Subwoofers:
-Alpine
-Kicker
-Pioneer
-MTX
-Infinity
-Rockford
Amps:
-Hifonics
-MTX
-Kicker
-Kenwood
-Alpine
I was also thinking about going with a 3 sub box. Would this work if I bought 3 of these amps and used one sub? Would this change my ohm ratio...

bro, it allll depends on which one you choose. if you want lots of power, a kicker sub and a hifonics amp is kick ***. if you just want something that'l give you a little bump in tha trunk, then rf and kicker amps will hook you up right.

Alpies will scream if installed right. MTX subs are good, just can't handle lots of power. not a fan of either of the P Series Fosgate subs, just not really well built. The SPL pioneers are great. The Infinitys aren't too bad, pay a little too much for the name ( like in Sony TV's)
Amps, Hifonics are great bang for the buck. MTX underrated amps, put out pretty good power, not the cleanest.Kicker amps are really expensive, but great power. Alpine amps have nice features and RMS is usually dead on.
Kenwood amps are vastly over-rated IMO, but chap.
Not a big fan of doing three sub setups, the ohms get a lil tricky.

im guessing those are the R's with the HAMR surround?
brutus took over the hercules line? how come they still sell the herc?
they're the same amps, just more power?

hmmmm subs.
rockford. If it has a P infront. F that.
Kicker.... depends on which model. Take into account that the Square woofers have bad suspension problems and toast easily. I'd suggest a CVX
Alpine.... Hype R's woooo
MTX....... Unless its a 9500 series. no
Infinity.. Nope
Pioneer. If its like the TS3000SPL (or wutever) then maybe
Amps:
Hifonics One of the ebst bang for the buck amps out there. Although the BX/BXI series have been burning up alot faster lately I've noticed
MTX Definetly not
Kicker Expensive but true reliable power. I wouldnt get it unless it was a 2500.1 (2 ohm stable)
Kenwood lawl no
Alpine baaahhhh Nope
I'd do 2 hype R's on a hifonics herc (if u can find it still) Thats the only R setup I've ever liked. Well that and TCAB's 1 12" on a 2500D @ .5
