Default Sub Questions - 1 Sub vs. 2?

I'm probably going to be doing a little system here in a couple weeks (got a lot of pay-day plans) and I'm debating what to do. I can get two pretty nice Pioneer Subs for about $110 bucks, or one really nice JL Sub or Audiobahn etc... and save some money because I can run a smaller amp... I was wondering what your guys opinions are since I don't have much experience in stereos. Here are links to everything I'm looking at, basically two decent subs or one really nice one?

Deck:

Subs:

or

run by : http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7123.html

or I can do these Pioneers: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_5292.html

Also my stock speakers suck, so same question applies... get 2-4 nice speakers, and replace stock with decent... or just get 6 decent speakers? I'm pretty much totally new to the whole stereo thing, basically I want to spend around 400-500 which isn't much... for sub+amp+box+head unit+speakers... and have something that sounds nice, and is decently loud. I'm not looking for rattle the mirror off, I just want something pretty loud that sounds clear. Maybe I'm way off on my choices, so let Me know what you guys think.

Also, would a box like this mount on top of my trunk like where the flip thing folds down, since my amp will be hooked up on the driver side in that hole?

Thanks in Advance :-).
