Alright, now seriously lol

I'm thinking of

1. Fox Acoustics Box=150+shipping?
2. 2 Polk Audio MM1240=300 shipped
3. MTX Audio XThunder X1000D=269.99
3. Stinger SPK5645R=82+12 for shipping=95
Total: 815.

Think I could do better for that price? Keep in mind, I listen to rap and want it low and loud!

Reason, I'm getting dual amp kit, is because in the future, I plan on adding components and an amplifier.

1) I just got the Fox Acoustics box in and it looks really nice. I would give it a thumbs up for sure.

2) Those are 12" subs, correct? I think you would need the MM1040 to fit in this box.

3) You'll have to figure out which subs you need to make this amp work but I would probably go with this amp....... http://www.powermaxelectronics.com/p...p?idproduct=97

4) That should do the trick.

Just my $.02!!

If I can get that box, wiring kit, those JL 10s and an amp for under 850. I'll do it in a heartbeat. I don't know that I can though.
