Ryan,
Yahama, Behringer, & B-52 all make some real killer sub boxes that are affordable.. contact me by e-mail directly and i'll let you in on where you can get a killer deal on them... or if you have an amp with a built in crossover I have other solutions...

Good Luck,

I have a JBL Eon G2 powered sub that works nicely. Light-weight (about 45 lbs I think) and small footprint. Got it for $525 delivered from riksmusic.com Not sure what they're going for now, but the G2s have been out for awhile, so I'd guess even less. I crank it all the way up and control it off a separate zone-out on my Behringer DX-1000 mixer. Even in the small rooms, it makes a big difference.

I'm assuming the amp is a QSC RMX1450?? The Yamaha speakers are rated at 8 ohm so you would hook 2 speakers up per channel which will drop the load to 4 ohms which is fine provided your speakers will be able to handle the power. This amp will push approx 450 watts per channel into 4 ohms. You did fail to mention what model the Yamahas are. S12e or the S112IV? The S112IV handles a little more power (300 watts) than the S12e (200 watts). 12" speakers aren't really designed for bass, they are designed to be run with separate subs. If you run all 4 speakers at every show, you'll want to use at least a 15" sub per side. 1 18" cabinet will work to get you going, & this may be all you need. You will want to run a separate amp & external crossover for the sub(s) for best results. Yamaha makes a matching sub for your speakers in both 15" & 18" either for under $300 each at Musicians Friend.
