Default Look at my new Stereo... Any advice on hooking it up... Building a Custom Box

Here it is... check out my System I am just itching to get in the IS...

10" JL W7-3
JL 500/1V2 Monoblock
1.5F Capacitor





Planning on installing in a week or so...

Any Advice on building a custom box? My buddy owns a countertop business... As long as I buy the drinks I can get a pretty unbelieveble custom box in 2 or 3 hours....

Also what do you all do about covering the box.... Carpet...Vynal.... Good Ol Paint... Any Advice or photos would be appriciated!

JL

Someone needs to invest in some photo-taking classes. LOL!

That's what I just put in. But y have a 1500 mono crunch amp. I have a fiberglass box I built for my old alphasonik and amp. 10w7 is the best sub I've ever had. I want to get another w7 and a 1000/1 v2 amp
