ive got a vibe sub and my bro has go 2.
we both have 12ich size and it drops deep and does the high bass.
i personally think they are seriously good.
if you wanna get the cheap there is a chap on ebay called bassmonkey. my bro got his from him and they were mint brand new boxed!
delivery is only 5 quid!!!

What Audiobahn are you thinking of getting?

I run the top end ones and can't find anything that will beat them (if there amped up right). The vibes produce a lot of mid bass and the alpine is good for clarity.

once again it depends on the music your going to listen to and what your intentions are for the rest of the system

hey was thinkin about the AUDIOBAHN-AW1200Q its gor an rms of 700 while the vibe blackair is only 250rms or 300 not sure???

Personally,I find the tuning of the VIBE boxes to be a little on the high side.This means they do produce more midbass.
As for subs....there is a world of subwooferage out there.Try looking on http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk

They have a large range,and also a forum where you can ask for advice.
