    Although I wouldn't mind Pioneer speakers, I think Targa and then Kicker presents a good sound within a budget.

    Underseat subwoofers are over-rated. In fact, subwoofers are overrated. For "normal" people, most bass you hear are from the midbass which should be around 100-300hz. Lower like 60hz is possible if it's a good set but you'll also need deadening, etc. to reach it.

    Subwoofers play from 20hz to 80/100hz. A normal human's hearing frequency is from 20hz til 20khz. At the age of 4, perfect pa hearing mo so 20hz is a check. By the time nasa 20s ka na, your hearing degrades to around 50hz. By the time you have your first child, nasa 60hz na yan probably. Boom boom sounds? 80-100hz yan p're.

    My point is that: rather than spending cash on a subwoofer, get better components or deaden your doors.

    EDIT:

    Focal's entry levels seps -- 165A1 Access should cost around 9k retail. 8500php after haggling.
    I don't like DLS X-Program at all. IMO, best enter DLS at RS6.

    Pioneers 5350UB should be around 6k retail. You won't really get an increase in sound quality versus the 3350UB. In fact, they look identically the same.

    For the budget, I think I'll go for a Morel, Targa, or Dominations. I'd go for Dominations if you plan on building your setup in case you want more as you can easily pair this with an Dominations Atom and Dominations Dolt 8" sub.
