Subwoofers: been out of car audio for a log time...

It has been a really long time since I have been into car audio… So I don't really know what is what anymore. I'm running to JL audio 10W6v2 right now in my car but one of them sounds a little "crackly" when turned up. I'm not 100% sure if I'm over driving it or if it's blown. Anyway, I'm considering an upgrade if there is such a thing. What is considered the "cats ***" of subwoofers nowadays?

I know it doesn't sound right but the Pioneer Champion series actually sound good.
