I don't like JL that much, Rockford stands up to pressure alot better, 10's are better for rock. I first put p2's when I put my system, and wanted to stick with the same thing, and the p2's hit ****in hard when they play with rap. They don't have ported boxes for my truck, but it will be way louder because it's right behind me. When you get your system tell me, I want some pics and a video too, lol. I am also wiring up these subs to a 1.34 OHM load, so I get the full 1000 at least, and then a lot more when they max out. My cap will also help out with this. I know Q/C's have better boxes, but wtf telling me I need a Q/C? my friend has 3 p3's in his... What amp are you plannin on running?

looks good. man, i wish some of that dough you have going there. that stuff does not look cheap. i heard 10s sound the best in a reg cab because you dont want too much low end bass in your face. also, i think 3 10s can easily beat 2 12s especially if you set it up right and there really isnt enough room for a ported box back there. btw, your truck is going to be running slower with all that extra weight in it lol. i like fosgates but i could only afford the stage 1, oh well

I feel your pain about the box. Im tryin to fit 2 Kicker 12" cvr's into my reg. cab and all I could find prefab was the same box. They have a mounting depth of 6-5/16" so that box won't work. Plus Im tryin to go by the minimum required seald air space of 1 cubic foot. I really don't want to take out the tray but I think I finally figured out how to make a box with the right dimensions. Fill it with polyfil. This tricks the subs into thinking they have more air space than they do. It truely is a b!itch though trying to fit all this stuff into a reg cab. I just have to ask, why are you paying full price for all your equipment. $850 for a 1000 watt amp at 1 ohm??? Crazyness. I got my 2 kickers for $152 (2 ohm dvc), a Hifonics Brutus 1200 watt amp at 2 ohm for $195, and I'm making a custom box. Ebay my friends, just do your research and know what you are buying.

I have heard of them but have not heard them play. I can tell you that their website suck at telling you any useful information. But according to them, they have amazing speakers.
