Thanks man!

I'm still up in the air about what sub/amp combo to put in there.
Whatever it is, it's going to be a High RMS 10" with prob a 700-1000 watt amp.

It's the beginning of a fiberglass sub enclosure. About a week of re-strengthening it and sanding and it will be done. I still need to order a sub first though.

I have a general idea of C/F I want the sub to need as well as a general idea of the actual mounting depth. How I make the front will really determine most of that.

Ok so I decided to go with a Fosgate P3 10" sub and I'm thinking about a massive audio NX2 960w monoblock amp. Does anyone have any experience with massive audio? I've been hearing good things.
