ok here is the setup im thinking about.... polk 6.5 speakers all the way around...stealth box with JL w7....sub thump amp rack... i dont know anything about amps? i want to make it bump hard so what kind of amp should i get or should i get 1 amp for the speakers and another for the sub? and what will it sound like with the stock head unit? i like the way it looks and dont rly want to change it but if i have to i will...if i get a flip up DVD player is it possible to put the stock head unit in later on if i want it back stock? let me know please.
The kicker L7 10's are mean, i have heard the 10 inch L5's and those packed a punch and they arent that expensive if price isnt a factor then go with JL but for the price you cant go wrong with L7's.
also polk momo has a shallow mount and bumps pretty hard, fosgates suck unless you go to their power series..I have two p2's in my truck since I just want bass to compliment my system and not control it...also thats as big as I could fit. I just sold my two alpine type R's, and those hit pretty fricken good to say the least

from what i hear the JL doesnt work well in the stealth box. any one tried it? if i went with the t-top box from subthump is it still easy to store my t tops? and wherte could i mount my amp if i didnt want it on top of the deck in the back?.. thanks
If you are on a budget, Kicker comp VR in a stealthbox or thunderform. If you want better and have the money, kicker comp VX. You'll love it.

i had the alpine type r in a mtx thunderform stealth box with 350 watts rms and it sounded really good even tho i needed a bigger amp. then i upgraded my system again and went with a memphis m1 dvc 10 with a mtx 3404 ta amp thats rated at 400w rms but and the birth sheet it puts out 488w rms at 2ohms and sounds way better than the alpine set up i had. i have had a few other subs in that box and the memphis m1 is by far the best i had. plays really low way lower than the alpine.
yeah ive heard some pretty loud kicker comp cvr's.... my buddy has 3 10's and they hit like no other, but that was also with a very nice kicker amp powering them...
ive got a kicker comp in a q loqic truck box im tryin to get rid of if you are wanting something that sounds clean and can still hit hard with the right amount of power...
just got a audiobahn 12 in a ported box and an infinity 1600a amp, so i really have no use for my old sub and amp... im just havin trouble findin a camera besides my cell phone camera to take pics with though

There are alot of subs here in price ranges and quality all over the spectrum. You still haven't narrowed it down. Kicker CVR's are entry level IMO but sound ok but you could buy 4 or 5 of them for the price of one W7. Not to mention there is no comparison between a W7 and a CVR but both are being recommended.
As I stated before...what is your price range...sub and amp? What do you listen to (music perference)? Are you willing to give up your hatch space? There are alot of variables that need to be narrowed down in order to make a good recommendation that makes sense for your needs and wants.
Where you hide your amp depends on what amp it is and how big it is.
The T-top box does work well for storage of your T-tops. It also gives you more airspace volume to work with for larger subs.
