Wow you're the closest person I've met on SSA, I'm just a little ways down the road in Ozark!

Where at in Mo are you Hawkeye?

There's a few people here on SSA that design box's as well as build them! Shoot them a PM. I've never been down that route though, so good luck! lol

If you're willing to try to make a box, I say go for it! With only 1 12" ported you should be fine with using only 1 sheet of mdf, so that with glue and screws the box would cost about $50 to $75. I haven't heard many good set-ups, but I have heard a few Fi subs, and I've loved them all. A BL will cost about $350 shipped, and is a very loud woofer. For an amp, since you're sort of on a budget, I'd say anything that puts out around 1k rms watts, will be fine, that way upgrading your electrical won't cost a fortune, and you could probably squeeze by with the big 3. Maybe a battery, but lets say the amp costs anywhere from $250 to $350. Finally, with the wiring, I'd go with 0 guage, and I think I spent about $200 dollars for all my wiring. That's only about $1,000.. So you have room to play around a little bit! Do some research, and don't be afraid to ask more questions!

Another thing we'll need to know is if you plan on building the box yourself or purchasing it from somebody or some place. To answer your question, yes $1,200 has the potential to be a nice system.

Yeah, we need to know your total budget that includes everything (sub, amp, box, wiring, etc..) and the goals of your set-up. What kind of music do you like and listen to daily?

Does it look good in person? Or like a cheap and ugly paint? I need to do the outside of my box, so it's semi-important compared to the inside of your wall. Thanks for the quick reply ;D

That's interesting you say that. His recommendation was a ported box from kenwood's Freak series. I don't care how cool the box was they wanted $550 for it. I don't know much about Kenwood, so I won't comment there. But, like others said, a good enclosure and how it is positioned in the vehicle it's in will make a large difference in what you hear. For 550 dollars I'm sure you can find much better box's, even on this forum we have people that build boxes. The cool thing about them is they will make it specifically to how you want it, so check them out if you don't have the tools to do the job yourself! and finally - to SSA!

Looks killer!! What'd you paint the inside of the box with?

thanks, I really like that amp it looks like a steal! But can I fit 0 gauge wire in it? If at all possible I would like to keep it under $300, I haven't ordered the sub yet but I was thinking dual 2ohm. I'm not sure if every part of the 0 guage wire would fit in it, but I know there are pieces you can buy that make that 4 guage (terminal?) a 0 guage one. It's just a little add on piece that fits in it. EDIT: Thanks to him ^^^^^ here is what I was talking about: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sound-Quest-Power-Wire-Reducer-0-4-Gauge-PAC104S-/310310108836?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item483fec7ea4

Check out Db-r, good customer service, good prices, and a good product. Don't worry about buying the refurbished ones, they still come with a 1 year warranty. I think he's got a couple SAX - 1200's up there. Welcome to SSA

Agreed, got it yesterday.

Sweet, those two door blazers seem to always get loud.

I hate people that have to steal... Glad you caught him! I've thought about an alarm myself, so I'm interested in what everybody says.

Yesss! Thank you for posting this. They both seem like great woofers.

You'll enjoy that Q I'm sure!! Welcome to SSA!
