Going to order that power acoustik one.
looks like a great amp.

should i do two seperate boxes for each 10" sub or a dual 10" box? keep in mind its going in the trunk of a cobalt.
I had my huge 12" box in there at one point.

now i'll have to get a box for it.
might do what i usually do and hit up audio tech in fairview heights.
The guy usually has boxes priced well. I just need a box for 2 10" woofers that'll fit in my trunk lol.
gonna measure when i get a tape measure.

Decided double box but why ported? I just need to make sure I can get one to fit in the trunk. I'd rather not build one

Amp is on its way and wiring kit just showed up.
Gonna get a box next week and install!
Just gotta find a good spot for the ground, i tried using the battery's negative terminal last time and it couldnt get a good connection.
gonna try and make the wiring nice and pretty too.

Got it all hooked up sunday and sounds good.
I'll take pics later.
Went to walmart and got their 10" sealed boxes for $30 a piece, its perfect amount of space too.

Good Deal man!

I just finished getting my 8" installed. Think I might have to hit some people up on some sound deadening to stop some rattles...

hmm I bought my last box off amazon... 2 12's free shipping made the deal.. was like $50. Hopefully it doesn't rattle the bits too bad?
