Where to buy RE

So, with the recommendations Ive recieved, Ive decided to got with a pair of 12" RE shallow subs. Found a guy to build a carpeted box for 175 ballpark. Now Ive got 2 questions:
Where is the best place to buy RE equipment from?
What amp should I be using?
Ive already got a Alpine MRP 450. I could pick up another for about 150ish, or should I go all new here?

Man it is effing hard to do a google search for "RE Audio". All that comes up are responses to audio questions, I.E. RE: Audio.

I did a search with my zipcode on thier site and came up with absolutely nothing. Not even like 50+ miles away, just got "No Results Found". Any reputable online dealers?

Yeah I looked there and at IKESOUND, which is what customer service at RE recommended. Neither have the SL series. Is that officially out yet? And if so where could I get it?

So apparently the thin mount RE SLs are not out yet. What do yall think about MA Audio? Specifically the HK1201F. Its got a heck of alot of excursion for a thin sub, but the low price of 110 makes me wonder what exactly is going on...

The place to buy RE now is on the eBay if you ask me. You can get stuff for about what it used to cost, before it doubled. I dont know if youll get a waranty with that or not though.

Aparently you have to call WoofersEtc to get the REAL pricing on the RE stuff.


Yeah, its pretty crazy Styx. Over 300 bucks for an SE now. Used to be 150 bucks....
