Sub speakers, dual 10s

Looking at this thread on regular speakers.
Still have not decided.

Now on subs...
I will be going for dual 10s in one of these boxes.

I will get mine Line-X'd though instead of painted.

I ran a 15" JL W6 in the 4Runner, what would be a good recommended sub for the above box?
JLs I like, but I am open to others is someones has had good experience running dual 10s.

They will be powered by my old school Rockford Fosgate 500a2 amp.

I think you will find that with a trip to home depot you can get the materials to build one your self and save around 500 bucks.
What i spent to build my for 2 gen.into the storage compartment in very rear
1 4x8 sheet of 3/4 mfd 25.00
1 can fiberglass reaisn 10.00
1 yard of cloth from joann faricks 3.47
1 3 set of paint brushs from wally world 1.00
10 sheets of mis. sand paper 3.45
time one afternoon to build one half day to cover and sand and install.
so for like 50 bucks in materials and a weekend at a beer drinking pace you could save a enough to by a better toy for your fj
just my .02s
as for front speakers get a set of 5.25 componets with crossovers or 6.25 polk audio or boston accustics Phoenix Gold(Portland Or. I have both 6.25 and 5.25 Octain R with 2 10's Octain rs as well great sounds but you need the amp for them to sound great I have the Phoenix Gold xs6600 6 channel and runs them all very well clean and crisp If you want I have a xs 6600 for sale thought I was going to use two but one is plenty and if it ever blows up for 135 bucks and shipping Phoenix Gold will rebuild it to brand new condition one of the biggest reason I bought the two from them)

Wish I could build, but I lack the skills, plus I do not have a house.
Gotta buy a pre-made one.

That type there too is made to go in the stock location of the factory optional subwoofer.

The JL Audio W1s are a great sub, very strong and efficient for the price. I would highly recommend them.
