I would suggest a Sundown SA-12, you can find them fairly cheap used, and an Audioque 1200D amplifier, which is much better than the SPL you posted, and can be had for 220 i believe. If you find a SA 12 for ~150-200 dollars, you will have a much better system than the JL's and the SPL. Plus, you'll have money left over for wiring and other miscellaneous install stuff. Good luck!
