Yea i agree, if you are going to do that fiberglass one off ebay, (looks sick, not gunna lie), you better have some kick to back it up... like 2 w6v2's and a JL or kicker 1000/1. A 300/1 watt amp running two tens is going to look pretty silly in such an intense enclosure. i do like the zenclosures one, i personally really wanted to be able to fold my back seat and still use the pass through.

You must find your personal balance between utility and functionality, and then the "oh snap check out my bang'n system" needs. not saying there is anything wrong with the ***** out system, but for a DD, you're screwed if you need to put more than a lunch box back there...

Why dont you just search the marketplace and buy two 4080 boxes? Then you can keep your space in your trunk and save money.

No way you'll pick up two 4080s for under $300.

I picked up two for around $400. I've seen them listed as low as $150 and $175. The only issue is waiting to find that deal.

Yo so I got the subs and couldn't be happier with how they sound, turned all the way up its earthshaking but halfway is just right.. So I was wondering for phase two should i go for a double din with only front speakers, or Front and back speakers of higher quality and another amp of course.. Also was wondering how much does it cost to have sound dampening put into the car? the trunk rattles way too much for my liking..

So in other words one 10" would be just right?
