I built a custom fiber enclosure for a Pioneer TS-SW2501S4 and have been pleasantly surprised. I've owned JL, MB Quart, and Polk subs before and have to say this baby is almost on par in terms of range/rolloff. The output is considerably less, but that may be because I'm running a 10" at 4ohms/250 watts instead of a 12" at 2ohms/500 watts.
I looked at JL, but couldn't find a model at the price point I wanted. I got my Pioneer new for $90 shipped from ebay.

This is so true. I had a 12" MB Quart (RWE304 ?) in a 1.2 cubic foot enclosure and built a fiberglass enclosure that ended up much smaller (~.7). The difference was night and day. The rolloff was terrible and the sub was missing a ton of low end frequencies that were present before.
