Default 10" sub box

Can anyone please post some links to a box for two 10" or 12" subs that designed for a 06 Mustang? At Circuit City, they have one there for $150, just wanted to check around and see if there are any more out there.

There are but if you want the best sound and want it to look custom you can get a custom made box, kinda pricey but well worth it I made my box which took me a few days, it was a lot of work, half way through I just felt like buying one lol.... but yeah go to a car audio place and get a quote on a custom made box you can pick a design out and they can do pretty much anything at a good audio shop

Any ideas on the MTX form fitted box?

http://cgi.ebay.com/MTX-THUNDERFORM-...QQcmdZViewItem

Has anyone gotten this type of enclosure, and put another brand of sub in?

Looking at:

Alpine HU http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1134701325185

Speakers:

Front Alpine 5x7 Type S
Rear Alpine 5x7 Type S "Components"

Amp's:

Alpine amp 4 x100 "V Power Series for the 4 Speakers
Amp to power sub, still deciding on what brand of sub to go with. If you suggest a sub, what amp have you went with?

Any suggestions on a different HU or Speakers is more than welcome!


Thanks

Crutchfield has a good deal on the Pioneer HU: Just to name a few bullet points, whats your reasoning for going with this one?

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-srvo5JZ...M&i=130DEHP680

Free shipping, harness, and install kit. Would I really need the 4x100 amp then for the 4 speakers, due to the output of the HU? I know it wouldn't be pushing them to the limit, but do think with the added sub, it should sound awesome? Should I then just go with a less powerfull speakers, if going the route of just having the HU push them?

Plenty of amp choices to push whatever sub I decide to go with.

I'm not looking for competition sound, just some kick.


Thanks

If you want really good advice go on an actual car audio forum. Post what your looking at and they will give you tons and tons of ideas. I learnd everything i know now (I make sound systems for peoples cars/install in my spare time now). I went on a car audio forum about 2 years ago. In my 05 v6 i got a alpine double din dvd deck, stock speakers(they are good but unplug they door subs cuz they r taking power you could put into the tweeters and door speakers) 0 guage wiring to the back where i have a hifonics amp rated at 1500w rms and 3000 max, and 1 10" alpine type x sub(competition sub 4 sound quality) rated at 1000w rms and 3000max. My amp never ever ever gets hot even on 2 hour car trips it stays luke warm. I will tell u this set up has one me a couple competitions not 4 loudness(it does get F'in loud like crazy) but for the way it sounds. ya there are better subs but all in all w/ out the deck i paid about 600total 4 the amp wiring and sub. the box i made myself very easily cuz its a sealed box. the ppl on the caraudio forum will tell you what you need 2 do 4 building a box. sorry im just rambuling on but if you really want the best sound build your own box to the specs of your subs you get. Trust me youll b allot happier with the sound quality when its built to your sub specs and not some cheaply made universal box that isnt specified to you sub.
