I want to buy 2 MTX 12' thunder 6000 subs. I saw 2 for 140, or 2 MTX Thunde 8000 12' for 255. I want to make a custom box, i have never dealt with subs before, fresh starter. anyone have instructions on how to make a box. materials ETC. and tell me what kind of amp you reccomend. im lost on the subject i hope for alot of responses and possible ways to install subs on a low budget. trying to spend under $1000

 

Box building materials:
MDF (medium density fiberboard) 3/4"
Screws (drywall work fine) 1 5/8"
Liquid Nails (or other bonding/sealing agent)
carpet
Jig Saw
Skil saw
Drill
*Put your T/S parameters online and whether you want ported or sealed and I'm sure that one of us can give you interior dimensions on a box.
As far as amps go, well that's a touchy subject. Do your own research, ask opinions and make a decision based on that and your budget. Asking about brands is like asking who makes the best car. Personally I only run Orion, US Amps, Zapco, OLD Earthquakes. Not much help but do a search on a reviw site and go from there.

 

for amps, I ran JBL power series... it's personal preference really. I've heard good things about the Rockford Fosgates too...
