did you say you build your own subs? If so, why not get two really good 15”-18” sub drivers, a high quality amp or two to push them and a mini DSP. For $4k you could probably do 4 of them honestly.
Otherwise I would look into the Funk since they are in the Great White North. The new JTR 1400 was recently reviewed on Databass and looks to be pretty awesome, though significant in size.
