subwoofer box
im also looking into that. im not sure how i want to mount my subs. Probably just make 2 boxes for my 2 10" subs. I see wally mart sells 12" sub boxes,lol Not to sure if theres really one better than the other or not.
Yeah theres a difference not only in quality but in the way the enclosure sounds as well, you want something that was built solid with the right thickness MDF, and you're better off with mounting holes that are precision cut with a router instead of a jigsaw, that way no air leaks. Also you want it to be the right airspace. If you have one custom built, you can get one the perfect size for where you want to put it, a generic box goes where it fits, you know? Tweeter charges around $250 (from my recollection, not sure), and I am pretty pricey if I don't say so myself, but if I was to build a couple at once, I could probably do it cheaper.
if your getting two subs get a bandpass box, they sound much better because of their seal, and they angle the subs semi-toward each other for less resonance and stronger bass. I have a bandpass box that fits 10" subs.... not in the car and has no speakers. It sits on my floor. But it sounded great in my old car.

You will probably have to get one custom built. i was looking at two 12s at best buy but the guy said the only way to get them to fit with the generic boxes would be to get rid of the spare. So i ended up with two 10 inch rockford fosgates and a 1000 watt amp, and even that is a pretty tight squeeze.
You can fit 2 12's in your trunk very easly, and with out removing your spare, first of all you can go to almost any audio store and find a box that will fit in you trunk, or build you one that matches the specifications of your sub, you will more than likely have to build a sealed box though, being most decent 12's need a good bit of room for a vented box.
