small car... need better sub.

Fitted new gear to my A class in october, Alpine 9812RB, Alpine S series
components front and rear (got a good deal on them fitted) and a Sony 8"
active sub.

Boot is tiny and I have to carry laptop and small tool kit, so can use about
half of it max for the sub, but the 8" sony just doesn't go low enough -
loud enough yes but no low enough.

So what's the best I can get that is (a) small (so double 10s not a good
idea, neither are 15s...) and (b) goes low? Looking at spending under 200
quid if I can.

Are the Basslink or SWD2000 going to be a big improvement, or a single 10 in
a slimline box with a good amp?

thereby lessening the deceleration of the rock, while straightening the
trajectory of the rock.

There's a pretty good JBL active sub available for around £80 or so.
Can't remember the model number, but my friend has one fitted in his
Corsa. Physically quite a small thing, but produces an amount of bass
that can't possibly be coming from such a small box.

Of course, it's not going to compare to a 10" JBL in its own enclosure,
but what do you really want, space or bass?
